Dependencies

These are the dependencies currently used by the Agrarian 2.0 modernization branch. You can find instructions for installing or building them in the build-*.md file for your platform. The preferred path is the deterministic depends/ tree, not mixed system libraries.

Dependency	Version used	Minimum required	CVEs	Shared	Bundled Qt library
Berkeley DB	4.8.30	4.8.x	No
Boost	1.91.0	1.47.0	No
Clang		C++17 support
D-Bus	1.10.18		No	Yes
Expat	2.8.0		Security fixes	Yes
fontconfig	2.12.1		No	Yes
FreeType	2.14.3		Qt 6 static font support
GCC		C++17 support
HarfBuzz-NG
libevent	2.1.12-stable	2.0.22	No
libjpeg					Yes
libpng					Yes
librsvg
MiniUPnPc	2.0.20180203		No
OpenSSL	3.5.6		No
GMP	6.1.2		No
PCRE					Yes
protobuf	2.6.1		No
Python (tests)		3.5
qrencode	4.1.1		No
Qt	6.8.3	6.8 LTS	No
XCB					Yes (Linux only)
xkbcommon					Yes (Linux only)
ZeroMQ	4.3.5	4.0.0	No
zlib	1.3.2				No

Modernization notes

• Qt builds target Qt 6.8 LTS through the deterministic depends path.
• OpenSSL builds target OpenSSL 3.5 LTS through the deterministic depends path.
• Boost builds target Boost 1.91.0 through the deterministic depends path.
• Berkeley DB remains 4.8.30 in depends for legacy wallet portability. Wallets built against other BDB major versions may not be portable.

Controlling dependencies

Some dependencies are not needed in all configurations. The following are some factors that affect the dependency list.

Options passed to ./configure

• MiniUPnPc is not needed with --with-miniupnpc=no.
• Berkeley DB is not needed with --disable-wallet.
• Qt is not needed with --without-gui.
• If the qrencode dependency is absent, QR support won't be added. To force an error when that happens, pass --with-qrencode.
• ZeroMQ is needed only with the --with-zmq option.

Other

• librsvg is only needed if you need to run make deploy on (cross-compilation to) macOS.
