Mono provides the necessary software to develop and run .NET client and server applications on Linux, Solaris, Mac OS X, Windows, and Unix. Sponsored by Novell, the Mono open source project has an active and enthusiastic contributing community and is positioned to become the leading choice for development of Linux applications. Requires libgdiplus.
./configure --prefix=/usr --sysconfdir=/etc --bindir=/usr/mono


NEWT is a windowing kit for text mode, based on the S-Lang library. It allows applications in coloured text mode to use window, buttons, boxes and such.
./configure --prefix=/usr --sysconfdir=/etc


Objective Caml is an implementation of the ML language, based on the Caml Light dialect extended with a complete class-based object system and a powerful module system in the style of Standard ML. FaCiLe is a constraint programming library on integer and integer set finite domains written in OCaml.
./configure -prefix=/usr && make world.opt


GNU Octave is a high-level language, primarily intended for numerical computations. It provides a convenient command line interface for solving linear and nonlinear problems numerically, and for performing other numerical experiments using a language that is mostly compatible with Matlab. Glpk and Qhull are libraries required by Octave. Octave compilation options are listed in this text file.
./configure --prefix=/usr --disable-static


OTcl (MIT Object Tcl) is an extension to Tcl/Tk for object-oriented programming.
./configure --prefix=/usr --disable-debug


Pyrex lets you write code that mixes Python and C data types any way you want, and compiles it into a C extension for Python.
./configure --prefix=/usr


Qhull is a library (with programs) that computes the convex hull, Delaunay triangulation, Voronoi diagram, and other tasks. This library is used by Octave.
./configure --prefix=/usr --disable-static


SCons is a software construction tool, an alternative to the classic 'Make' build tool. SCons is implemented as a Python script and set of modules, and SCons 'configuration files' are actually executed as Python scripts. This gives SCons many powerful capabilities not found in other software build tools.


SWIG is a software development tool that connects programs written in C and C++ with a variety of high-level programming languages. SWIG is used with different types of languages including common scripting languages such as Perl, PHP, Python, Tcl and Ruby.
./configure --prefix=/usr --disable-static


TclCL (Tcl with classes) is a Tcl/C++ interface used by Mash, vic, vat, rtp_play, ns, and nam. It provides a layer of C++ glue over OTcl.
./configure --prefix=/usr --disable-debug


wxWidgets is a C++ framework for graphical interfaces, this version outputs GTK interfaces. Even if you don't write software with this framework, wxWidgets libraries may be necessary for using programs based on it.
./configure --prefix=/usr --enable-optimise --enable-threads
--disable-debug --with-gtk --with-expat --with-regex
--without-gnomeprint --without-gnomevfs --with-odbc --with-sdl
