== Required Packages ==
The required packages should be the same as for HTC Dream: see [wiki:BuildDream]

== Warning ==
Do not build as root, always build as user.

== Setup ==
Get and install the repo tool:
{{{
 mkdir bin
 cd bin
 wget http://php.webtutor.pl/en/wp-content/uploads/2011/09/repo
 chmod a+x repo
 cd ..
}}}
Once kernel.org is back up, repo should be downloaded from http://android.git.kernel.org/repo instead.

Get replicant 2.3:
{{{
 mkdir replicant-2.3
 cd replicant-2.3
 ../bin/repo init -u git://gitorious.org/replicant/manifest.git -b replicant-2.3
 ../bin/repo sync
}}}

== Each time you want to build replicant 2.3 ==
{{{
cd ~/replicant-2.3
 ../bin/repo sync
source build/envsetup.sh
export ANDROID_JAVA_HOME=$JAVA_HOME
lunch replicant_crespo-eng
make -j$(echo "$(grep 'processor' /proc/cpuinfo | wc -l ) + 1" | bc) distimages #uses arguments like -j9 to speed up build in case of multi-core cpu
}}}
Note that you can use {{{bacon}}} instead of {{{distimages}}} to produce a more complete set of images, including zip files. 
Don't forget the {{{distimages}}}/{{{bacon}}} at the end, without that you will have some build errors.

You will find your built images in ./out/target/product/crespo/.

You will also find fastboot, needed to install the images, in ./out/host/linux-x86/bin/.

Now you are ready to [http://trac.osuosl.org/trac/replicant/wiki/Installation install!]
