Pre-compiled versions

The Hugin project makes reasonable efforts to ensure that the released source code builds on a wide variety of platforms. We also provide information how to build the source code (links below). We don't have the resources to go beyond that. Sometimes we also don't have access to specific platforms and can't guarantee that the code builds either.

Please don't ask us for binaries / pre-compiled versions. We believe that if a group of users of a specific platform feels the need, they will eventually produce them.

For platforms with package managers, please inform us of the location of your binaries and we'll gladly link to instructions how to use them.

As a courtesy for platforms without package managers, we'll upload contributed binaries to the official Sourceforge repository after they have passed enough testing. You are free to distribute your (unofficial) builds from everywhere else at any time.

• Windows: official 0.7.0 (there are still quality assurance issues with dependencies).
• Mac: official 0.8.0.
• Linux: use your distribution's official package manager.
• Fedora: Instructions for using the Hugin snapshot repository can be found at the Fedora page on the panotools wiki
• FreeBSD: Hugin is in the ports collection.
