ArchLinux Installation

The OpenAstro is in the ArchLinux Users Repository (AUR), to install the package from the PKGBUILD you must have the package group "base-devel" installed first:
# pacman -Sy base-devel

Then you may install with an AUR Helper such as Yaourt:
$ yaourt -S openastro

Otherwise you have to use makepkg :
$ wget https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/openastro/openastro.tar.gz
$ tar -xzf openastro.tar.gz
$ cd ./openastro/
$ makepkg -si

Generic Linux Installation

You can also manually build openastro.org, the pyswisseph module and the ephemeris files.

Make sure you can get these dependencies satisfied to run the program:

python3-dateutil
gir1.2-rsvg-2.0
gir1.2-gtk-3.0
python3-tz
python3-dev
python3-cairo
imagemagick
librsvg2-bin

curl -L "http://www.openastro.org/download.php?file=source&type=python3-swisseph" | tar xz

cd python3-swisseph-2.00.00 && sudo python setup.py install

curl -L "http://www.openastro.org/download.php?file=source&type=openastro" | tar xz

cd openastro.org-1.1.56 && sudo python setup.py install --prefix=/usr

curl -L "http://www.openastro.org/download.php?file=source&type=data" | tar xz

cd openastro.org-data-1.8 && sudo python setup.py install --prefix=/usr

To run the program type "openastro" in a terminal

There seem to be issues with the python path. Try running (in a terminal):

export PYTHONPATH="${PYTHONPATH}:/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages:/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages"

openastro

Should be fixed starting version 1.1.54
