Building and Installing PIPS from SVN with autotools
The Quick Way
If you are confident, you can download get-pips4u.sh and run it
# get the script wget https://scm.cri.ensmp.fr/svn/nlpmake/trunk/makes/get-pips4u.sh chmod u+x get-pips4u.sh # display some info ./get-pips4u.sh --help
And then choose one of the two retrieving method :
# run it in user mode (fetch tar.gz) ./get-pips4u.shor
# run it in developer mode (use svn) ./get-pips4u.sh --devel
You may run into an error, in that case see the error message, install missing dependencies and run again !
