How to Install BasKet from Source

If you're feeling adventurous, BasKet comes with a handy script that guides you through installing it from source. Just extract the basket archive and right-click on the file in Konqueror to choose "Extract Here".

Add some fun by opening the new folder and hitting F4 to open a terminal window there. Type in ./installer, and voilà! The assistant will take care of everything for you—including restarting BasKet when it's done.

No Worries if It Doesn't Work Right Away!

If installation hits a snag or some libraries are missing, make sure to install those *-dev or *-devel packages from your distribution—they contain essential library sources needed for compiling.

Simpler Installation via Distribution Package

If you've got BasKet as a package for your distribution, just open it up, enter your root password, and boom—it's ready to go in your KMenu!

Your First Steps with BasKet!

You can launch BasKet by using the command basket (like in Run command or console). If you didn’t install it yet, just run ./basket . This way it'll be ready right away—though keep in mind it won’t restart automatically next time KDE boots up.
