Setting up a Linux build configuration is fairly straightforward. These build instructions were used for the "official" build platform of Ubuntu 10.04, but also on the latest Ubuntu 12.10. First, run the following command to install all the required development packages:

Ubuntu 12, 14.04, 15.10

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install bison flex gperf libasound2-dev libgl1-mesa-dev \
    libgstreamer0.10-dev libgstreamer-plugins-base0.10-dev libjpeg-dev \
    libpng-dev libx11-dev libxml2-dev libxslt1-dev libxt-dev \
    libxxf86vm-dev pkg-config x11proto-core-dev \
    x11proto-xf86vidmode-dev libavcodec-dev mercurial libgtk2.0-dev \
    ksh libxtst-dev libudev-dev

...

   currently not recommended for building ARM because of packaging conflicts with libgl1-mesa-dev and the compatibility libraries needed for ARM.

...

You must also install Gradle. We are using Gradle v1.8 using Gradle 2.9 for 9-dev, and Gradle 1.8 for the older 8-dev (IMPORTANT: Only Gradle 1.8 is guaranteed to workthese versions are regularly tested).

Environment Variables

At a minimum, you will need to have gradle, java and javac in your path.
