PSPP is GNU software. You can obtain it the same way as with any GNU software. PSPP should work on most modern computers and most operating systems. Systems which have been known to work include:
- GNU/Hurd
- GNU/Linux
- Mac OS X (Darwin)
- OpenBSD, NetBSD and FreeBSD
- Windows (using Cygwin, or natively with MinGW)
Downloading the Source Code
If you want to download, compile and install the source code yourself, please use one of the mirror sites. Once you have downloaded the tarball, refer to the INSTALL file for installation instructions. The PSPP wiki has some operating system-specific tips for installing PSPP as well.
Binaries
We do not distribute precompiled binaries of PSPP. Many operating systems provide such binaries, but these might not be the most up to date version. Refer to your operating system's instructions for details. Below is a list of some precompiled binary packages for various operating systems, of which we are aware. Please note these are prepared by third parties over whom we have no control. We make no assertions about the reliability of these packages.
- Gnewsense
- Fedora
- Debian
- Ubuntu
- OpenSuSE
- FreeBSD
- MS Windows
- Mingw-based version from CECAPS/UFMG (nl, fr, de, es, pt_BR), including both the most recent released version of PSPP and a snapshot of recent development activity.
- Cygwin based version
- Live CD's containing PSPP
- Mac OS X
Development Version
If you want the latest “bleeding edge” version, development sources are available from the Savannah GIT repository. However, the installation procedure is more complex. It's recommended only for experienced hackers.
