Installing Dependencies

Required:

• gcc, gcc-c++
• python (version >= 3.6)
• glib (version >= 2.58.0)
• cmake (version >= 3.13.4)
• make
• pkg-config
• xz-utils
• lscpu
• rustup (version ~ latest)
• libclang (version >= 9)

APT (Debian/Ubuntu):

# required dependencies
sudo apt-get install -y \
    cmake \
    findutils \
    libclang-dev \
    libc-dbg \
    libglib2.0-0 \
    libglib2.0-dev \
    make \
    netbase \
    python3 \
    python3-networkx \
    xz-utils \
    util-linux \
    gcc \
    g++

# rustup: https://rustup.rs
curl --proto '=https' --tlsv1.2 -sSf https://sh.rustup.rs | sh

On older versions of Debian or Ubuntu, the default version of libclang is too old, which may cause bindgen to have errors finding system header files, particularly when compiling with gcc. In this case you will need to explicitly install a newer-than-default version of libclang. e.g. on debian-10 install libclang-13-dev.

DNF (Fedora):

Warning: dnf often installs 32-bit (i686) versions of libraries. You may want to use the --best option to make sure you're installing the 64-bit (x86_64) versions, which are required by Shadow.
