Required developer packages

Here is a list of developer packages required to build JOGL on Linux or Solaris, broken out by distribution.

To check if a package is installed under Debian/Ubuntu/Kubuntu, type dpkg -s packagename. To check if a package is installed under Red Hat Enterprise/Fedora/Suse/CentOS, type rpm -qa | grep packagename.

If you're missing a package, you'll have to install it with the correct method for your distribution. That's a complex topic which we don't currently cover here.
