parted: Software Required

1 1.2 Software Required for the use of Parted
1 ===========================================
1 
1 If you're installing or compiling Parted yourself, you'll need to have
1 some other programs installed.  If you are compiling Parted, you will
1 need both the normal and devel packages of these programs installed:
1 
1    * libuuid, part of the e2fsprogs package.  If you don't have this,
1      you can get it from:
1 
1      <http://web.mit.edu/tytso/www/linux/e2fsprogs.html>
1 
1      If you want to compile Parted and e2fsprogs, note that you will
1      need to 'make install' and 'make install-libs' e2fsprogs.
1 
1    * GNU Readline (optional), available from
1 
1      <ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/readline>
1 
1      If you are compiling Parted, and you don't have readline, you can
1      disable Parted's readline support with the '--disable-readline'
1      option for 'configure'.
1 
1    * GNU gettext (or compatible software) for compilation, if
1      internationalisation support is desired.
1 
1      <ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/gettext>
1 
1    * libreiserfs, if you want reiserfs support:
1 
1      <http://reiserfs.osdn.org.ua>
1 
1      Note that parted will automatically detect libreiserfs at runtime,
1      and enable reiserfs support.  libreiserfs is new, and hasn't been
1      widely tested yet.
