also need Git (to download the source code) and Autoconf (to generate
the configure script and associated files using 'autoreconf' tool):
$ git clone git://git.nic.cz/bird.git
$ git clone https://gitlab.labs.nic.cz/labs/bird/
$ cd bird
$ autoreconf

- Flex
- ncurses library
- GNU Readline library (2.1 or newer)
- GNU Readline library
- libssh library (optional, for RPKI-Router protocol)
For compiling BIRD documentation you also need:
- Linuxdoc-Tools
- LaTeX
Note that build scripts for BIRD documentation expects 'nsgmls' from
James Clark's SP suite, while modern distributions use 'onsgmls' from
OpenSP suite. It is possible to build BIRD documentation with OpenSP
tools, but it requires manually tweaking paths in doc/sgml2* scripts.
