Additional Packages

There are some other packages you should get if and install you haven't already...

gettext GNU Gettext internationalization library. (If you have GNU Libc 2.0 or later, you don't need this.)
rx GNU Regular eXpression library, if your system does not already have the regcomp and regexec library calls.
zlib The zlib compression library (implements the GNU Zip compression algorithm). Used to compress change sets for distribution.
bzip2 library The bzip2 compression library (implements the bzip2 compression algorithm). Used to compress change sets for distribution, and to optionally compress Aegis' database.


The Bleeding Edge

Aegis developers (the generous people who work on the Aegis source itself) may access the latest development changes through the Web Interface pages. Not recommended for novices.

There is also an RSS feed for Aegis, so developers can easily track what is happening, and when they need to resync.
