The latest stable release of HyPhy can be built from source using the [Cmake] cross-platform build system. Not all systems come with cmake preinstalled, but you should be able to use an appropriate package manager for Linux (e.g. [Yum]) or OS X (e.g. [homebrew]) to obtain cmake. You will also need to make sure that your system has the a working C/C++ compiler, e.g. [gcc]). This should come preinstalled on the vast majority of Linux systems, and can be installed on OS X as a part of [XCode].
The main source tree of HyPhy can be downloaded from GitHub. Please consult the readme file on GitHub for further instructions and some dependancies. The simplest build process to compile a particular flavor of HyPhy and install it to /usr/local (see GitHub Readme on how to override this) consists of 4 steps:
$cd /path/to/hyphy/
$cmake ./
$make TARGET
$make install
should be the root of the source directory from github (either cloned or downloaded as a tar.gz file). It contains the CMakeLists.txt file.
TARGET is one of the following options
