1 To build Openbox from CVS you need:
3 A C++ Compiler (GNU GCC/G++ 3.2+ suggested)
6 GNU Automake 1.7+ (<= 1.4 confirmed to not work)
8 Xft2 library/headers (devel package) (http://www.fontconfig.org)
9 Xlib library/headers (devel package)
10 Python library/headers (devel package) (http://www.python.org)
11 SWIG 1.3.17+ (http://www.swig.org)
13 I recommend the latest version of all these packages.
