+The following shell command-line/script file((made executable with chmod +x)) can be used to install the required and recommended packages on **Debian**-based Linux distros (e.g. **Ubuntu**):
+<file sh install-sbbs-deps.sh>
+  sudo apt install build-essential perl zip git gdb libarchive-dev libncursesw5-dev libnspr4-dev libmosquitto-dev libsystemd-dev libcap-dev xorg-dev libsdl2-dev libgtk-3-dev libglade2-dev python3 python-is-python3 lrzsz gkermit

+==== CentOS 7 ====
+To be able to use Mosquitto for MQTT, you will need to add the EPEL repo. Execute the following command as root:
+  yum -y install epel-release
+Now install the development tools:
+  yum group install "Development Tools"
+and finally the rest of the prerequisite packages
+  yum install libarchive-devel nspr-devel ncurses-devel libcap-devel systemd-devel xorg-x11-server-devel SDL-devel lrzsz gkermit mosquitto-devel
+(this is a work in progress)
+==== MacOS ====
+After installing [[http://brew.sh|Homebrew]]:
+  brew install pkgconf nspr libarchive
