% README.bsd 2025-09-12
% Tested on FreeBSD 14.3-RELEASE (with X11 + GNOME installed), OpenBSD 7.7 (with X11) and NetBSD 10.1 (with X11)
1. Prerequisites for building zint
==================================
Prerequisites are git, cmake, make, gmake, gcc (or clang) and, for PNG support, libpng, e.g. FreeBSD
su
pkg install git cmake gmake gcc graphics/png
exit
or OpenBSD (make and clang should already be installed):
su
pkg_add git cmake gmake png
exit
or NetBSD (make and gcc should already be installed):
su
pkgin install git cmake gmake png
exit
To install the gs1encoders library, optional but needed for GS1 Syntax Engine support, clone, gmake and install:
git clone https://github.com/gs1/gs1-syntax-engine
cd gs1-syntax-engine/src/c-lib
gmake CFLAGS_G='-DEXCLUDE_SYNTAX_DICTIONARY_LOADER' lib
su
gmake install
exit
(on FreeBSD, the ldconfig not found error can be ignored)
Then clone the latest zint source
git clone https://git.code.sf.net/p/zint/code zint
cd zint
2. Prerequisites for building zint-qt
=====================================
On FreeBSD:
su
pkg install qt5-core qt5-uitools qt5-buildtools qt5-qmake qt5-svg
exit
On OpenBSD:
su
pkg_add qtbase qttools qtsvg
exit
On NetBSD:
su
pkgin install qt5-qtbase qt5-qttools qt5-qtsvg
exit
3. Build
========
The rest is standard CMake (allowing for absence of sudo)
cd zint
mkdir build
cd build
cmake ..
make
su
make install
exit
except that on OpenBSD you need to use
cmake -DCMAKE_PREFIX_PATH=/usr/local/lib/qt5/cmake ..
and on NetBSD
cmake -DCMAKE_PREFIX_PATH=/usr/pkg/qt5 ..
instead.
4. Run
======
On FreeBSD and OpenBSD, the CLI zint and GUI zint-qt should run without issue from the command line.
On NetBSD you may have to set LD_LIBRARY_PATH if using the default ksh. For zint ("libzint.so" and "libpng16.so") and
zint-qt (Qt5 libraries and "libGL.so"):
setenv LD_LIBRARY_PATH /usr/local/lib:/usr/pkg/lib:/usr/pkg/qt5/lib:/usr/X11R7/lib
Place in "~/.cshrc" to make permanent.
5. CMake options
================
See "README.linux". Note for running the test suite on FreeBSD, if using the default csh, to set LD_LIBRARY_PATH use:
setenv LD_LIBRARY_PATH ${PWD}/backend
Also, for Qt5 test on FreeBSD, need:
su
pkg install qt5-testlib
exit
