There is a small 'trick' I find very useful on Linux for when trying to work out what dependencies are required in order to build some package from source. Both apt (Debian based systems) and dnf/rpm (Red Hat/Fedora based distros) have an option to get the build dependencies for a package. For DNF it is builddep e.g. dnf builddep emacspeak will list build dependencies as defined for the distro verison of emacspeak. For Debian/Ubuntu, I think it is apt build-dep or something similar. I find this trick very useful for making it easier to get dependencies when building from source. For example, I use this in order to install all the emacs dependencies so that I can build emacs from source. As most distributions also include an emacspeak package, it works for emacspeak as well. The good thing is that because emacspeak build dependnecies change rarely, even an older distro version of emacspeak will generally give you the dependencies you need for a current build/install. Sorry, don't have an answer for macOS, especially as I don't run it anymore! HTH Tim "Parham Doustdar" (via emacspeak Mailing List) <emacspeak@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> writes: > Ah yes, I figured.
