[Qgis-developer] Minimal requirements

[Aaron Racicot]

Martin,

Just wanted to point out that there is a dependency amongst dependencies in
that list between QT and PyQT:

- For QT4.3.X you need a PyQt that is compatible... i.e. PyQt4.2.x will not
work.


Also, Riverbank states that "Note that we only test against the latest
stable version of Python and the latest stable version of Qt."  They also
ship their binary installer of PyQt for Win requiring Python2.5.

Just some observations...

Hi,

I'll try to summarize it here (for QGIS 0.9):

Required build deps:
- CMake >= 2.4.3
- Flex, Bison

Required runtime deps:
- Qt >= 4.2.0
- Proj >= ? (known to work with 4.4.x)
- GEOS >= 2.2 (3.0 is supported, maybe 2.1.x works too)
- Sqlite3 >= ? (probably 3.0.0)
- GDAL/OGR >= ? (1.2.x should work)

Optional dependencies:
- for GRASS plugin - GRASS >= 6.0.0
- for georeferencer - GSL >= ? (works with 1.8)
- for postgis support and SPIT plugin - PostgreSQL >= ?
- for gps plugin - expat >= ? (1.95 is OK)
- for mapserver export and PyQGIS - Python >= ? (probably 2.3)
- for PyQGIS - SIP >= 4.5, PyQt >= 4.1

Recommended runtime deps:
- for gps plugin - gpsbabel

I hope I haven't missed anything. Basically no cutting edge releases
of deps are needed.

Martin
