MusE is available in several different distribution forms. MusE should be available in most most distributions in the default repository, the actual procedure to do this is outside the scope of this page. Some info is available below under the Binaries chapter. If your distribution only has an old version (older than 0.9 is not recommended for serious use) you may try to install it from source follow the instructions in the Manual or read more about the Installation instructions.

Source

Latest stable/unstable

If you want to get the latest source release (not SVN) check our sourceforge download area at:

http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=93414

• How to compile MusE from source? See Installation!

Binaries

If you don't want to compile your software on your own, a prebuild binary would be the best way to install MusE. They should be available for most Linux distributions.

DEB

Check your distributions repository, no specific info at this moment. From the command line this is usually done with a command like one of these:

sudo apt-get install muse
sudo apt-get install museseq
sudo aptitude install muse

There is probably a graphical packet manager than makes it more user friendly.

RPM

Check your distributions repository, no specific info at this moment. From the command line this is usually done with a command like one of these:

urpmi muse     (in mandriva, done as root)
yum install muse (in fedora based distros)

There is probably a graphical packet manager than makes it more user friendly.

GENTOO

Information below may be out of date.

Because gentoo is very up2date normally you should find ebuilds of all versions of MusE
