Software Requirements

First you will need to install a few libraries to compile the source

Build tools & libraries:

• Automake, Autoconf, gettext, pkg-config
• Mono SDK (>= 4.6.2)
• Nini (>= 1.1)
• log4net
• SQLite3
• GTK# (>= 2.12.39) (optional, but required for the GNOME frontend)
• Notify# (optional)
• Indicate# / MessagingMenu# (optional)
• DBus# / NDesk.DBus (optional)
• GtkSpell (optional)
• STFL (optional, but enabled by default)

Depending on your operating system and favorite distribution the installation of the listed applications varies.

For Debian based distributions it's just a matter of the following commands:

apt-get install build-essential git autoconf automake intltool mono-devel mono-xbuild libnini-cil-dev liblog4net-cil-dev libgtk2.0-cil-dev libnotify-cil-dev libdbus2.0-cil-dev libdbus-glib2.0-cil-dev lsb-release
