A good tutorial here on how to update oscam using simplebuild (refer to section 2):
http://linuxsat-support.com/showthread.php?t=30959

If you are just trying to build oscam for your debian server, simplebuild is not really necessary to build a native oscam. Simplebuild is primarily to make cross-compiling "simpler." (Also to help setup your build environment..)

To build oscam for your local machine, you can just do this from your home directory (or wherever you want the files...):

svn checkout http://www.streamboard.tv/svn/oscam/trunk oscam-svn
cd oscam-svn
./config.sh -g
make

The first command retrieves the latest version of oscam source code into the directory "oscam-svn"
Second command changes into that directory
Third command starts the configuration gui. If you are not sure what options you need, the defaults pretty much cover everything.
Fourth (last) command builds oscam. The binary created will be in the "Distribution" directory. (it will tell you this)

Later, if you want to update, you can just do the following:

cd oscam-svn
svn update
./config.sh -g
make

Of course this is assuming you have already setup a basic build environment and if you ran simplebuild in the past you probably do already have. The following command does this:

./simplebuild debinstall

If you need smartreader and/or PCSC support, change the make command to:

make USE_LIBUSB=1




or




make USE_PCSC=1




or




make USE_PCSC=1 USE_LIBUSB=1

Again assuming you have already run simplebuild in the past.

More detailed instructions can be found on the oscam wiki page:http://www.streamboard.tv/oscam/wiki/BuildingOscam

BTW - the simplebuild method pointed to by codar above will work just fine. This is just an alternative for those who want to learn more...
