__Note2:__ The official Ubuntu package in current versions are known to be misconfigured - translations will not work and some other smaller problems might occur. So if you use Ubuntu, the best would be to download and use our version. ¶

## Unofficial development Builds ¶
There are some people providing pre-compiled (ready to run like our official releases) packages, made from our current development state. Below are the links to those builds. Installation should work similar as described in "Official builds" ¶
¶
### Windows ¶
[Tino](/profile/Tino) provides daily (or even more often compiled) builds. These can be found at [http://widelands.8-schuss.de/](http://widelands.8-schuss.de/). ¶
¶
### Linux ¶
[Azagtoth](/profile/Azagtoth) provides daily builds of svn. Just go to [https://www.azagtoth.de/widelands-daily/](https://www.azagtoth.de/widelands-daily/). Some browsers might complain about an invalid certificate. Just add it, and don't worry about it. ¶

## Source Code ¶
¶
### Build ¶
The packages containing the tag _source_ are the source packages for this release, they usually come in two flavours: ZIP and TAR.BZ2. Both archives contain exactly the same content. ¶
¶
Download the source of a build number at the [downloads page](http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=40163). ¶
¶
¶
### Subversion (SVN) ¶
If you plan to join development or are just interested in the latest inventions ¶
you should go for this. You __need to have__ SVN with SSL installed, to check-out the trunk. Type in the ¶
console: ¶
¶
svn co https://widelands.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/widelands/trunk widelands ¶
¶
If (it might not) SVN asks you if it should accept the certificate of our SVN server, say (p)ermanently. ¶
¶
After downloading the source, you might want to check BuildingWidelands for a !HowTo on building. ¶
