Revision as of 10:06, 29 November 2006
The following is the current (as of July 18, 2006) list of direct dependencies for GNUstep.
Note :
- some of these dependencies are dependent of each other (eg. tiff requires jpeg, and libungif requires freetype2)
- each of these dependencies may require additional libraries, which are not listed here
- the given names may not accurately reflect the actual package name as provided by your system
GNUstep-make
Required
- GCC with ObjC support -- preferably version 4.x
- GNU make -- called gmake or gnumake on some systems
Optional

GNUstep-base
Required
Recommended
- libxml2 -- for XML-based property-lists
- libxslt -- for stylesheet support for use with XML
- openssl -- for HTTPS connections in urls
Optional
- libiconv -- unicode support, only install if not provided by your system / glibc
- libgmp4 -- arbitrary precision arithmetic
- libbfd -- universal "Binary File Descriptor" library
