CMake, GNU build tools, git and m4 macro processor have to be installed. Unless that's already the case, install them as usual from your distribution packages. E.g. on Ubuntu, run `sudo apt-get install cmake build-essential git m4`. The names of the packages may be different on different distros.
|
||||
|
||||
Although most of dependencies are handled by the build script, PrusaSlicer still expects that some libraries will be available in the system (GTK, MESA, gettext). E.g., on Ubuntu, install the required packages by running `sudo apt-get install libgtk-3-dev libglu1-mesa-dev gettext`. The names of the packages may be different on different distros.

PrusaSlicer uses CMake and the build is quite simple, the only tricky part is resolution of dependencies. The supported and recommended way is to build the dependencies first and link to them statically.

#### Troubleshooting
|
||||
|
||||
Although most of the dependencies are handled by the build script, we still rely on some system libraries (such as GTK, GL, etc). It is quite likely that you have them already installed, but in case that CMake reports any library missing, install the respective package from your distribution and run CMake again.

## Useful CMake flags when building dependencies

As already mentioned above, dynamic linking of dependencies is possible, but PrusaSlicer team is unable to troubleshoot (Linux world is way too complex). Feel free to do so, but you are on your own. Several remarks though:
|
||||
|
||||
The list of dependencies can be easily obtained by inspecting the CMake scripts in the `deps/` directory. Many don't necessarily need to be as recent
|
||||
as the versions listed - generally versions available on conservative Linux distros such as Debian stable, Ubuntu LTS releases or Fedora are likely sufficient. If you decide to build this way, it is your responsibility to make sure that CMake finds all required dependencies. It is possible to look at your distribution PrusaSlicer package to see how the package maintainers solved the dependency issues.

#### wxWidgets
|
||||
By default, PrusaSlicer looks for wxWidgets 3.1. Our build script in fact downloads specific patched version of wxWidgets. If you want to link against wxWidgets 3.0 (which are still provided by most distributions because wxWidgets 3.1 have not yet been declared stable), you must set `-DSLIC3R_WX_STABLE=ON` when running CMake. Note that while PrusaSlicer can be linked against wWidgets 3.0, the combination is not well tested and there might be bugs in the resulting application.
