SAGA SSH Adaptors - Installation For detailed informations on how to install SAGA, please refer to the documentation section on our website: http://www.saga-project.org/documentation PREREQUISISTES: o SAGA Core Components You have to install the SAGA Core Components before you can install the Python Bindings. The Core Components are available on the SAGA website. o Boost C++ Libraries >= 1.33 You need to have the Boost C++ libraries installed on your system. Many systems already provide binary packages for them. If your system doesn't you can download the source from http://www.boost.org and build it yourself. o ssh command line tools The ssh adaptors all need ssh and scp, the ssh_file adaptor also needs sshfs. Note that sshfs in turn needs fuse to be installed and enabled in order to function properly. If the ssh command line tools are not in your path, you can tell configure where to find them, with the following options: BUILDING AND INSTALLING THE SSH ADAPTORS The SSH Adaptors come with a configure/make-based buildsystem. There are some useful options for ./configure: --boost-location= The location of your Boost installation (e.g. /usr/local/packages/boost-1.42). You only need this option if boost is *not* installed in the default path (/usr/ or /usr/local --with-ssh= The paths to the ssh command line tools, in case --with-scp= those cannot be found by configure via your --with-sshfs= PATH environment, For a complete list of configure options, you can type ./configure --help To configure, build and install the SSH Adaptors, make sure that $SAGA_LOCATION points to your SAGA Core Components installation and execute ./configure and make: $> export SAGA_LOCATION=/PATH/TO/SAGA_CORE_INSTALLATION $> ./configure --with-boost=/BOOST/DIR/ --with-ssh=/PATH/TO/SSH ... $> make $> make install Please help us to improve the quality of SAGA and file a bug report if you have encountered any problems with the build system.
