How do I compile Dolphin 3.0 for Linux?

I'm trying to compile Dolphin 3.0 in Debian Wheezy. I followed the instructions from http://code.google.com/p/dolphin-emu/wiki/Linux_Build and got it running, but it's the current, "dirty" version.
How do I get the source code for 3.0?

I'm assuming this is the correct revision: http://code.google.com/p/dolphin-emu/source/detail?r=35d1599724a4c41d0c93e4cbf05ba109feaa969c&name=3.0

You need but
$ cd dolphin-emu
$ git checkout 35d1599724a4
to switch your local clone to that revision.

There may be incompatibilities with newer versions of Dolphin's dependencies, but otherwise compilation should be the same.

Thanks. I switched to 3.0, but as you said, there are probably some dependency problems. Cmake went fine, but make stopped at 12% with this:

make[1]: *** [Source/Core/AudioCommon/CMakeFiles/audiocommon.dir/all] Error 2

I don't have the slightest idea what to do about any of that.

I guess I will have to use a more recent version to get it to compile.

Can you recommend a fast one?

Newer revisions are not really faster than the official Dolphin 3.0 release. You could try to compile the latest git version.

After trying a few of the newer ones, 3.0-639 (5a77cae2e343) compiled successfully. Thanks for the help.

I was trying to compile 3.0 hoping it would be faster than the current version. I had been using 3.0 from the ubuntu PPA , and the newest revision seemed much slower than that. 3.0-639 seems about the same, so I'll probably keep it for a while.
