Toxic Build Status

Toxic is a Tox-based instant messenging client which formerly resided in the Tox core repository, and is now available as a standalone application.

Installation

Dependencies

Base
Audio
  • libtoxav (libtoxcore compiled with audio support)
  • openal
Sound notifications

Compiling

  1. cd build/
  2. make PREFIX="/where/to/install"
  3. sudo make install PREFIX="/where/to/install"

Compilation Notes

  • You can add specific flags to the Makefile with USER_CFLAGS="" and/or USER_LDFLAGS=""
  • You can pass your own flags to the Makefile with CFLAGS="" and/or LDFLAGS="" (this will supersede the default ones)
  • Audio call support is automatically enabled if all dependencies are found
  • If you want to build toxic without audio call support, you can use make DISABLE_AV=1
  • Sound notifications support is automatically enabled if all dependencies are found
  • If you want to build toxic without sound notifications support, you can use make DISABLE_NOTIFY=1

Packaging

  • For packaging purpose, you can use DESTDIR="" to specify a directory where to store installed files
  • DESTDIR="" can be used in addition to PREFIX="":
    • DESTDIR="" is meant to specify a directory where to store installed files (ex: "/tmp/build/pkg")
    • PREFIX="" is meant to specify a prefix directory for binaries and data files (ex: "/usr/local")

Troubleshooting

If your default prefix is "/usr/local" and you receive the following:

error while loading shared libraries: libtoxcore.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

you can attempt to correct it by running sudo ldconfig. If that doesn't work, run:

echo '/usr/local/lib/' | sudo tee -a /etc/ld.so.conf.d/locallib.conf
sudo ldconfig

Settings

Running Toxic for the first time creates an empty file called toxic.conf in your home configuration directory ("~/.config/tox" for Linux users). Adding options to this file allows you to enable auto-logging, change the time format (12/24 hour), and much more. You can view our example config file here.
