           Summary: Add more info about packages needed during compilation
           Product: Wine
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: P2
         Component: wine-documentation
        AssignedTo: wine-bugs(a)winehq.org
        ReportedBy: tuharsky(a)misbb.sk


You know that. You use app that depends on the latest patches in Wine, so that
You cannot use old distributional packaged Wine. You must compile it Yourself
from the very fresh source.

Although the very compilation is quite flawless and well documented, I still
lack a full list of libraries needed.

Many problems I have reported have been solved by simple installing a library
before compilation. The .configure log isn't very clear about what he is "just
murbling himself" and what is a "real complaint".

Please, could somebody create FULL list of libraries that some part of Wine
depends on?

Could somebody put this list directly to the Wine Users Guide, chapter regarding
the compilation process?

So far, I have identified these packages (Debian): fontforge, libfreetype-dev,
xlibs-dev, libcupsys2-dev, libttf-dev, libungif4-dev

Please, pretty please, make the full list and publish it bravely in User's
Guide. I will be the first one who will read it and add the apt-get install
command to my custom compilation scripts.
