Description
Here is the list of requirements be able to run all of aMule package's applications (the requisites for compiling aMule are mentioned in the compilation articles).
Requirements for specific aMule applications (amuled, amuleweb, wxcas, ...) are listed in the appropriate application article.
Hardware
- An aMule-compatible platform. Though it suppors a wide variety of platforms, some few rare ones are still not (officially) supported.
- A keyboard, a mouse and a screen are strongly recommended for obvious reasons. Though they might not be needed depending on the aMule application you want to run.
Software
Required
- An aMule-compatible operating system is required
- The standard C and C++ libraries
- wxWidgets 2.5.0 or higher. Command line applications will do with just wxBase. GUI applications will require their wxwidgets taste (wxGTK, wxMSW, wxMac, etc) depending on the Operating System you are running on (note that wxbase is integrated into all wx GUI tastes)
- zlib library
- GetText is not absolutely required, but very strongly
- Perl and XChat are required to run some tools in the aMule package
Recommended
Optional
- libcrypto++ is optional and usually not recommended
