Here are bzipped tarballs of joytran releases. It is also possible to get a zip or tar.gz from any revision in the Fossil repository, but this requires redirection, which many package management systems do not like...
Unfortunately, berliOS now has shut down, and Google Code no longer allows file uploads. Therefore, I have migrated the project (as in, tarball releases) to Sourceforge instead.

Installation
To install joytran, either install the port, or build manually
Install Port
Issue the following commands as root:
# cd /usr/ports/emulators/joytran
# make deinstall reinstall
Install from source
First change to directory of the extracted joytran tarball, then issue the following commands as root:
# cmake .
# make clean
# make install
Configuration
0.8.7-RELEASE and future releases
Now Joytran installs system-wide configuration profiles, so local profiles are not strictly necessary. However, there are some cases where you might want to customize the profiles, or change the way the buttons are mapped, due to specific controller mappings. In these cases, read the manual in the section regarding local profiles.
Versions 0.8.2-RELEASE to 0.8.6-RELEASE
In these versions, as well as prior versions, local profiles are necessary.
The profiles are now in a profiles directory, inside of the .joytran/ directory.
So, the steps will be a little different from before, as follows:
Make the .joytran directory, as your regular user (NOT root):
> mkdir -p ~/.joytran/profiles
Change to extracted zip directory as your regular user, (NOT root) then issue the following command:
> cp -pR profiles/* ~/.joytran/profiles/
Pre 0.8.2-RELEASE
Copy the contents of the profiles directory to your home directory, eg. issue the following command:
Make the .joytran directory, as your regular user (NOT root):
> mkdir -p ~/.joytran
Change to extracted zip directory as your regular user, (NOT root) then issue the following command:
> cp -pR profiles/* ~/.joytran/
In future releases, the creation of the profiles and configuration directory will be automatic, but that has not happened yet.
Fortunately, the program will refuse to run (and hence avoid annoying segmentation faults) if the profile path is incorrect, or if the profile does not exist..
