And for building the sources:
- Vala = 0.40 (may be optional), attention GNOME LaTeX cannot be built with Vala >= 0.42.

If you are installing GNOME LaTeX from a tarball, you don't have to install Vala because the C code is already generated.
Installation
Simple install procedure from a tarball:
$ ./configure
$ make
[ Become root if necessary ]
$ make install
See the file 'INSTALL' for more detailed information.
From the Git repository, the 'configure' script and the 'INSTALL' file are not yet generated, so you need to run 'autogen.sh' instead, which takes the same arguments as 'configure'.
To build the latest version of gnome-latex plus its dependencies from Git, Jhbuild is recommended. gnome-latex is in the gnome-world moduleset. An example of a jhbuildrc file is provided:
