##Build instructions for GYP/CMake under Ubuntu 12.04 ###Prepare * Install git by command **sudo apt-get install git** in Terminal * Install g++ by command **sudo apt-get install g++** in Terminal You need to install g++ version 4.9 manually by such commands * sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ubuntu-toolchain-r/test * sudo apt-get update * sudo apt-get install gcc-4.9 g++-4.9 * sudo update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/gcc gcc /usr/bin/gcc-4.9 21 * sudo update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/g++ g++ /usr/bin/g++-4.9 21 ###Prepare folder Choose a folder for the future build, for example **/home/user/TBuild** There you will have two folders, **Libraries** for third-party libs and **tdesktop** (or **tdesktop-master**) for the app. ###Clone source code By git – in Terminal go to **/home/user/TBuild** and run git clone https://github.com/telegramdesktop/tdesktop.git ###Prepare libraries Install dev libraries sudo apt-get install libexif-dev liblzma-dev libz-dev libssl-dev
