here are some detailed instructions for Linux (tested on SL5 and OpenSuse). The required svn client should be available on any standard Linux installation.
| Code Block |
|---|
svn list svn+ssh://svn.cern.ch/reps/siddbd/trunk |
should say
| Code Block |
|---|
Chapter_Benchmarking/ Chapter_Calorimetry/ Chapter_ConceptOverview/ Chapter_Costs/ Chapter_ElectronicsDAQ/ Chapter_ForwardSystems/ Chapter_Introduction/ Chapter_MDI/ Chapter_Magnet/ Chapter_MuonSystem/ Chapter_SimReco/ Chapter_Summary/ Chapter_Tracker/ Chapter_Vertex/ DBDMain/ |
then just do
| Code Block |
|---|
svn co svn+ssh://svn.cern.ch/reps/siddbd/trunk <Your chosen Directory Name> |
then cd into this directory
| Code Block |
|---|
cd <Your chosen Directory Name> |
and do an ls, you should see

now to compile the DBD, you 'll need a Latex installation and Python
On more recent Linux distributions, you'll find texlive and it will work finde (Version of Texlive 2010) or newer
if you are stuck with SL5 (default at CERN, DESY, etc.) you may need a more recent version of Latex, so try
| Panel |
|---|
/afs/cern.ch/sw/XML/TL2011/2011/bin/x86_64-linux/pdflatex this needs to be activated in compile.py |
then proceed
| Code Block |
|---|
cd DBDMain python compile.py acroread DBD.pdf & |
and that is all.
