- make, gcc, and similar tools

- During runtime you need the following dependencies:
-
- util-linux > v2.18 (requires fsck -l, agetty -s)
- sulogin (from sysvinit-tools, optional but recommended)
- plymouth (optional)
- dracut (optional)
+ intltool
+ gperf
+ gtkdocize (optional)
+ python (optional)
+ sphinx (optional)
+
+ When systemd-hostnamed is used it is strongly recommended to
+ install nss-myhostname to ensure that in a world of
+ dynamically changing hostnames the hostname stays resolvable
+ under all circumstances. In fact, systemd-hostnamed will warn
+ if nss-myhostname is not installed.
+
+ Note that D-Bus can link against libsystemd-login.so, which
+ results in a cyclic build dependency. To accommodate for this
+ please build D-Bus without systemd first, then build systemd,
+ then rebuild D-Bus with systemd support.
+
+ To build HTML documentation for python-systemd using sphinx,
+ please first install systemd (using 'make install'), and then
+ invoke sphinx-build with 'make sphinx-<target>', with <target>
+ being 'html' or 'latexpdf'. If using DESTDIR for installation,
+ pass the same DESTDIR to 'make sphinx-html' invocation.
