Getting the Code

Cactus is maintained using git. The preferred method is to use the GetComponents script along with a thornlist as described below. We maintain a page of basic thornlists, but you can use your own customized thornlist.

Download GetComponents and make sure it is executable.

wget --no-check-certificate https://raw.github.com/gridaphobe/CRL/Cactus_4.3.0/GetComponents
chmod a+x GetComponents

To checkout the Cactus flesh and required thorns, choose and save one of our ThornLists (or provide your own) and issue the command:

./GetComponents <thornlist-url>
