To compile the Uplink's demo just download it, uncompress the archive somewhere using;

tar zxf clutter-orbiter-sample.tar.gz<return>

Now you need the clutter lib;

apt-get install libclutter-1.0-dev<return>


Im trying to learn clutter at present, ive been throught the tutorials and now I wanted to build the example, i have the example downloaded and can see the cpp code etc, however when i try to do the install libclutter-1.0-dev it says it cannot find the package?? am i doing someting wrong?

You're doing it right, except that the package libclutter-1.0-dev was first introduced in Ubuntu Karmic. You'll have to either run Ubuntu 9.10 or 10.04, or backport the package.

If i change the code to use the 0.8 version which is available on kubuntu will it still work or do i need to setup a Ubuntu environment just to learn clutter?

I'm not sure what differences there are between the libclutter version in 0810 and the 910/1004 version...give it a try

There is a toolkit for Clutter called mx, which is being used for Moblin/MeeGo currently:

A description of it is here:
http://blogs.gnome.org/thos/2009/11/18/a-new-clutter-widget-toolkit/

a git repository of the toolkit is here:
http://git.moblin.org/cgit.cgi/mx/

Meanwhile, over on the qt side of things
http://labs.trolltech.com/blogs/category/labs/graphics/kinetic/declarative_ui/

Qt is a very compelling option. We'll just have to enable STL compatibility to work with our existing C++ code.

Quick is definitely something to look into, as the entire UI can be defined in Javascript, and style like languages.

an example walkthrough of some Qt Quick stuff:
