10Some development libraries are needed for compiling :
11
12gtk 2 development libraries (libgtk2.0, libgtk2.0-dev)
13glib 2 development libraries (libglib2.0-0, libglib2.0-dev)
14libpopt development libraries (libpopt0, libpopt-dev)
15libpango development libraries (libpango1.0, libpango1.0-dev)

17To compile the source tree from a tarball, simply follow these steps :
18
19- ./configure
20- make
21- make install
22
23After running ./configure, you can also go in specific subdirectories and
24use make, make install.

51This source tree is based on the autotools suite from GNU to simplify
52portability. Here are some things you should have on your system in order to
53compile the subversion repository tree :
54
55
56GNU autotools (automake-1,7, autoconf2.50, autoheader2.50)
57(make sure your system wide "automake" points to version 1.7!)
58GNU Libtool
59(for more information, go to http://www.gnu.org/software/autoconf/)
60
61If you get the tree from the repository, you will need to use the autogen.sh
62script. It calls all the GNU tools needed to prepare the tree configuration.
