XMMS source is available from a CVS server (thanks to Falsehope) from where you can
download the latest development version. It's rather easy to use CVS, first of all if your system lacks CVS, download
it from http://www.loria.fr/~molli/cvs-index.html.
Once you've made sure that CVS is on your system you have to set an enviroment variable:
for bash:
export CVSROOT=":pserver:anonymous@cvs.xmms.org:/cvs"
for csh:
setenv CVSROOT :pserver:anonymous@cvs.xmms.org:/cvs
When you have set the variable use cvs login to login to the CVS server.
(just hit enter when it asks for the password)
cd to the dir where you want the XMMS source to be downloaded to, then run
cvs -z3 checkout xmms
Please use the -z3 option to minimize network bandwidth (-z9 eats too much CPU time - please don't use it).
Once the checkout is completed, cd xmms/ and then ./autogen.sh to create the configure script. Once
autogen is completed run make and make install to compile and install XMMS.
If you want to update your source tree with the latest changes simply use cvs -z3 update -Pd xmms
and do as described above.
