+</ul>
+<h3>Libraries</h3>
+The following libraries are required:
+<ul>
+  <li>libpq (e.g. libpq3-7.3.4-2mdk.i586.rpm)  </li>
+  <li>libproj (e.g. libproj0-4.4.7-1mdk.i586.rpm)  </li>
+  <li>libgdal(e.g. libgdal0-1.1.9-2mdk.i586.rpm)  </li>

+  <li>libfftw (must be fft2, e.g. libfftw2-2.1.5-2mdk.i586.rpm)</li>
+</ul>
 
+<h3>NOTE:</h3>
+In some distributions (e.g. Mandrake) the names of libraries is slightly different. Check, and if there is no file of the name:<br>
+libtk.so.0<br>
+libtcl.so.0<br>
+libpq.so.2<br><br>
+then you should type:<br><br>
+    su<br>
+    ln -s /usr/lib/libtk.so /usr/lib/libtk.so.0<br>
+    ln -s /usr/lib/libtcl.so /usr/lib/libtcl.so.0<br>
+    ln -s /usr/lib/libpq.so.3 /usr/lib/libpq.so.2<br>
+    ldconfig
+<p>
+Instead of (or in addition to) libtk.so and libtcl.so, you might have
+libtk8.4.so and libtcl8.4.so. In this case, type instead:<br><br>
+    ln -s /usr/lib/libtk8.4.so /usr/lib/libtk.so.0<br>
+    ln -s /usr/lib/libtcl8.4.so /usr/lib/libtcl.so.0<br>
