Requirements:
POSIX thread (pthreads) final draft support. Most operating systems support pthreads natively, however FreeBSD in particular does not completely support the final draft. To build using FreeBSD, see the README.FREEBSD file included in the main distribution.
Thread-safe X11 libraries. Again, most operating systems have no problem with this, but if you are using libc5 under Linux (ie you get "Fatal IO Error" when starting Licq) you will have to make sure that you are using thread-safe libraries (see www.xmms.org).
Qt 3.0 (libraries and developement headers). Check out http://www.trolltech.com for more information. This is only required if you want to use the Qt gui plugin (recommended).
C++. A c++ compiler and libstdc++ plus c++ headers are also required.
GNU Make. Comes with BSD and Linux, others will have to install it.
RPM users will need to ensure the following packages are installed:
qt (3.0 or greater)
libstdc++
gcc-c++
openssl (0.9.5a or greater)
Additionally if you are compiling from source you will need:
qt-devel
libstdc++-devel
XFree86-devel
Openssl for secure connection support (optional)
GpgMe for GPG support (optional)
