}}}
Done!

This page is targeted at those who wish to develop and build the freesurfer source code on their Linux platform. These instructions have been tested for CentOS6 x86_64 desktop edition.

1. Get the Source Code

If you have access within the Martinos Center firewall, follow the steps below to download the source code from CVS. Non-Martinos users can get readonly CVS access to the source code by following the directions on this page:

# Local:
$> export CVSROOT=/space/repo/1/dev
$> cvs checkout -P dev

# Remote:
$> export CVSROOT=:ext:USERNAME@door.nmr.mgh.harvard.edu:/space/repo/1/dev
$> cvs checkout -P dev

2. Install System Libraries

The following system packages are required on CentOS6 systems before building. Equivalent or similar packages will be required on other linux distributions.

$> yum groupinstall "Development Tools"
$> yum install mesa-libGLU-devel \
            freetype-devel.x86_64 \
            libuuid-devel.x86_64 \
            uuid-c++-devel.x86_64 \
            libXmu-devel.x86_64 \
            libXi-devel.x86_64 \
            lapack-devel.x86_64 \
            liblapack-devel.x86_64 \
            libXaw-devel.x86_64 \
            libpng-devel.x86_64

3. Library Dependencies

In order to compile freesurfer, you will need to download and install our prebuilt bundled of 3rd party dependancies. Download the package and remember the location as you will need to pass the directory containing the 3rd party libraries to the configure script.

$> wget ftp://surfer.nmr.mgh.harvard.edu/pub/dist/fs_supportlibs/prebuilt/centos6_x86_64/centos6-x86_64-packages.tar.gz
$> tar -xzvf centos6-x86_64-packages.tar.gz
$> cd centos6-x86_64-packages
$> ./setup.sh

4. Setup, Configure, Make

Determine the location you want Freesurfer to be installed. For example, in case case we will assume the user wants freesurfer to be installed in /home/USER/freesurfer. Type the following commands in the top-level Freesurfer directory (the directory that contains configure.in and all the mri_* and mris_* directories.)

$> ./setup_configure
$> ./configure --prefix=/home/username/fs_install --with=pkgs-dir=/home/username/centos6-x86_64-packages
$> make -j4
$> make install

Done!

Its possible some systems (Ubuntu) will complain about a missing jpeg library after the configure script is run, or during runtime. If this happens, create the following symbolic link:

$> cd /usr/lib64
$> sudo ln -s libjpeg.so.62 libjpeg.so
