EDA (Electronic Design Automation) is a suite of software tools used for designing and simulating electronic circuits. In this tutorial, we will cover the steps to install EDA on Ubuntu Server latest version.
First, we need to update the package list and upgrade the existing packages on the system. This will ensure that we have the latest versions of the required packages.
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade
EDA requires some additional packages to be installed on the system. We will use the following command to install these packages:
sudo apt-get install build-essential qt4-dev-tools libqt4-dev libqt4-opengl-dev gnuplot
Download EDA from the official website https://eda.jortilles.com/en/jortilles-english/. Choose the appropriate version for your system.
wget https://eda.jortilles.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/06/eda_1.9.9_i386.deb
Now, we will install EDA using the following command:
sudo dpkg -i eda_1.9.9_i386.deb
EDA is now installed on the system. To launch EDA, run the following command:
eda
