Dear Raul,
I have added the dependencies section to the web page (under release notes).
Hopefully I did not miss something. Please tell if I did. This is initial
release and I tested it so far on my computers only, which have a lot of
development tools and libraries installed. I might have used something not
realizing that it is not included by default.
Also, right now (I'm actually on vacation at tip of the Berdyansk spit in the
Sea of Azov, working from my netbook) I have no access to any other platforms
then Ubuntu Lucid Lynx (at work and at home I have it too), so, compiling on
anything else right now is like swimming in "uncharted waters", you are on you
own. I hope in a few releases there will be much higher level of portability.
Thank you for your feedback !
With the best regards,
Konstantin.
