Ubuntu/macOS Setup

Native Ubuntu and WSL Ubuntu use the same instructions. macOS uses the same installer one-liner; macOS-specific notes are inline below.

Prerequisites

1. Ubuntu (native or WSL) — for WSL, ensure your username is configured
2. git — verify with git --version
3. curl — verify with curl --version
4. An Innovative-authorized GitHub account
5. A working copy of the SBN_IR SVN tree — follow Source Code first

Step 1 — Install

The installer downloads the latest release into ~/ibs-compilers, offers to remove any pre-existing Python ibs_compilers install, offers to migrate an existing settings.json, and ends by prompting to run configure (which appends a PATH export to your ~/.bashrc or ~/.zshrc).

Step 2 — Configure

If you accepted the install-time configure prompt, skip the first command. Otherwise:

Open a new shell so the new PATH entry loads, then:

Use any profile name (e.g. SBNA). Point SQL_SOURCE at the SVN working copy you set up via Source Code (typically ~/ir_local).

Updating

See Getting Started → Updating.

Notes

1. macOS Gatekeeper: on first run you may see "cannot be opened — developer cannot be verified". Run xattr -d com.apple.quarantine * in ~/ibs-compilers once.
2. Permission denied after self-update: chmod +x ~/ibs-compilers/*
3. Bash hash cache: hash -r after PATH changes.
