Namely, we cannot help trouble shooting OpenGL driver issues or dependency issues if compiled against distro provided libraries. We can only support PrusaSlicer compiled the same way we do compile PrusaSlicer for our [binary builds](https://github.com/prusa3d/PrusaSlicer/releases), that is linked statically agains the dependencies compiled with the `deps` scripts. + +Instead of compiling PrusaSlicer from source code, you may consider to install PrusaSlicer [pre-compiled by contributors](https://github.com/prusa3d/PrusaSlicer/wiki/PrusaSlicer-on-Linux---binary-distributions). + +### How to build + PrusaSlicer uses the CMake build system and requires several dependencies. The dependencies can be listed in the `deps` directory in individual subdirectories, although they 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.
