Requirements for Linux/X11

Instructions in this documentation assume Ubuntu Linux 64-bit 20.04 LTS or later. Other Linux distributions might work, but have not been tested.

Installing platform dependencies

Before you can build the applications with Qt Onboard, you must have the correct build tools and other dependencies installed in the development host:

DependencyDescription
C/C++ build essentialsQt Onboard assumes that a C++ compiler, debugger, make, and other development tools are provided by the host operating system.
Python3Required by the Qt Onboard toolchain installer.
libusb-1.0Required by the QDB tool.

You can install the dependencies with the following command in a terminal:

sudo apt-get install build-essential python3 libusb-1.0-0

Note: The requirements for building your own embedded Linux image are listed in Setting Up Environment for Building Qt Onboard.

If you have problems with installing the build essentials, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/InstallingCompilers.
