====== SWI-Prolog dependencies ======

SWI-Prolog requires the following packages:
  * libc6 (>= 2.7-1),
  * libgmp3c2,
  * libncurses5 (>= 5.6+20071006-3),
  * libreadline5 (>= 5.2),
  * libgmp3-dev,
  * libreadline5-dev

===== A clean install =====
To install the required packages manually (i.e., when compiling swipl from scratch or using a converted RPM package), do the following:

  sudo apt-get install libc6 libgmp3c2 libncurses5 libreadline5 libgmp3-dev libreadline5-dev

===== A quick fix =====
Another way to install the required packages is to install the ''swi-prolog'' package itself (available in Ubuntu universe repository, unavailable in Etch stable) and then remove it:

  sudo apt-get install swi-prolog
  ...
  sudo apt-get remove swi-prolog
