-----------------------
Install dependencies. Here's an example for Debian/Ubuntu:
$ apt-get install build-essential libirrlicht-dev cmake libbz2-dev libpng12-dev libjpeg8-dev libxxf86vm-dev libgl1-mesa-dev libsqlite3-dev libogg-dev libvorbis-dev libopenal-dev libcurl4-gnutls-dev libfreetype6-dev
$ apt-get install build-essential libirrlicht-dev cmake libbz2-dev libpng12-dev libjpeg8-dev libxxf86vm-dev libgl1-mesa-dev libsqlite3-dev libogg-dev libvorbis-dev libopenal-dev libcurl4-gnutls-dev libfreetype6-dev zlib1g-dev libjsoncpp-dev
Download source, extract (this is the URL to the latest of source repository, which might not work at all times):
$ wget https://github.com/minetest/minetest/tarball/master -O master.tar.gz
$ tar xf master.tar.gz
$ cd minetest-minetest-286edd4 (or similar)
You can install git for easily keeping your copy up to date.
If you dont want git, read below on how to get the source without git.
This is an example for installing git on Debian/Ubuntu:
$ apt-get install git-core
Download minetest_game (otherwise only the "Minimal development test" game is available)
Download source (this is the URL to the latest of source repository, which might not work at all times) using git:
$ git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/minetest/minetest.git
$ cd minetest
Download minetest_game (otherwise only the "Minimal development test" game is available) using git:
$ cd games/
$ wget https://github.com/minetest/minetest_game/tarball/master -O minetest_game.tar.gz
$ tar xf minetest_game.tar.gz
$ mv minetest-minetest_game-* minetest_game
$ git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/minetest/minetest_game.git
$ cd ..
Download source, without using git:
$ wget https://github.com/minetest/minetest/archive/master.tar.gz
$ tar xf master.tar.gz
$ cd minetest-master
Download minetest_game, without using git:
$ cd games/
$ wget https://github.com/minetest/minetest_game/archive/master.tar.gz
$ tar xf master.tar.gz
$ mv minetest_game-master minetest_game
$ cd ..
