`build.mak` is used.

## Installation
|
||||
|
||||
PSPSDK is distributed in both source and docker image. If you only want to
|
||||
use the PSPSDK tools and libraries to develop your software you'll want to pull
|
||||
the docker image distribution of PSPSDK using https://github.com/pspdev/pspsdk/pkgs/container/pspsdk. If you need fine-grained control over how PSPSDK is installed on your system, or if you
|
||||
would like to modify PSPSDK then grab the source distribution.
|
||||
|
||||
### Requirements
|
||||
|
||||
To use PSPSDK you must have the following software installed:
|
||||
|
||||
* The PSPDEV Toolchain. PSPSDK requires the GNU toolchain (GCC and binutils)
|
||||
targetted to the PSP. You can find binary packages of these tools at
|
||||
https://github.com/pspdev/. You can find a script to build and install the
|
||||
toolchain at https://github.com/pspdev/psptoolchain.
|
||||
|
||||
In addition to the above requirements, if you plan on building PSPSDK from
|
||||
source, you will need:
|
||||
|
||||
* Make. Note: GNU Make may not be required, but if you run into problems
|
||||
building from source you may want to install it. You can find GNU Make
|
||||
at http://www.gnu.org/software/make/.
|
||||
|
||||
* A Git client. Check https://git-scm.com/downloads how to install git
|
||||
according to your system.
|
||||
* GNU autotools. You will need a recent version of autoconf
|
||||
(http://www.gnu.org/software/autoconf/) and automake
|
||||
(http://sourceware.org/automake/).
|
||||
* [PSPDEV Toolchain](https://github.com/pspdev/psptoolchain-allegrex)
|
||||
* [GNU Make](http://www.gnu.org/software/make/)
|
||||
* [Git client](https://git-scm.com/downloads)
|
||||
* [GNU autoconf](http://www.gnu.org/software/autoconf/) and [automake](http://sourceware.org/automake/)(GNU Autotools)
|
||||
|
||||
The following packages are not required to build PSPSDK, but are used to build
|
||||
documentation and other optional resources:
|
||||
documentation:
|
||||
|
||||
* Doxygen. You can find Doxygen at http://doxygen.nl/.
|
||||
If you want to view the pretty source dependency graphs, then you will also
|
||||
need to install Graphviz (http://www.graphviz.org/).
