Installing from a Debian Package

Debian packages will be available for all major components of GENESIS via Sourceforge at:

• http://repo-genesis3.cbi.utsa.edu/deb/

or

• http://genesis-sim.org/downloads

This allows for easy installation via the Debian Package installer GUI.

Installation via Package Installer

Simply download the desired package to your machine. Go to the directory where it was downloaded. This directory should have an appropriate ‘package’ icon.

Double click on the package icon. A form will appear that gives details about the package such as: Package description, Dependencies, and files to be installed.

Click on the “Install Package” button and you will be prompted to enter the administrator password to proceed with the installation.

Once the installation is complete the package installer will prompt with a ‘Finished’ message.

Uninstalling GENESIS

GENESIS can be uninstalled in one of two ways:

• Either via a the Debian package uninstaller or
• Via the Command Line:

  sudo apt-get --purge remove <package-name>

  where <package-name> is replaced with the name of the .deb package that was previously installed.
