 Library dependencies are listed in the [components](#components) table. The dependencies need to be satisfied for the components to be built. Note that if you don't have a dependency for some component, e.g. you don't have `libopus` installed required for building `toxav` component, building of that component is silently disabled.

+Be advised that due to the addition of `cmp` as a submodule, you now also need to initialize the git submodules required by toxcore. This can be done by cloning the repo with the addition of `--recurse-submodules` or by running `git submodules update --init` in the root directory of the repo.

 #### Compiler requirements
 
 The supported compilers are GCC, Clang and MinGW.
