Overview

- Freevo has a large number of dependencies. If you are using a distro that already has Freevo pre-packaged it is recommended to use them. For the rest of us and those that just like getting dirty here is the core list:

Perl Modules (optional, for xmltv only)

- LWP

- XML::Twig

- XML::Parser

- XML::Writer

- Date::Manip

  The simplest way to get install the perl modules is to use "cpan <module name>".

Depending on what features you want beyond Core there are extra deps. Future updates to this page will attempt to make a complete list of deps and which apps depend on which to make building easier.
