Warning

Jami needs at least swig 4.2 to work. Else it will raise errors at compilation. See if the package is available with this version from your package manager, else you will need to install it from sources.

On Debian/Ubuntu
apt install cmake build-essential swig yasm ninja-build m4 autotools-dev autopoint
On Arch
pacman -S cmake ninja automake swig yasm m4 patch autoconf pkgconf
On macOS:
brew install cmake automake autotools libtool pkg-config yasm swig

When using brew on macOS, the 'libtoolize' binary might be available as 'glibtoolize'. In that case, the following command makes it avaialble to the build system:

ln -s /opt/homebrew/bin/glibtoolize /opt/homebrew/bin/libtoolize

Android SDK & NDK

Make sure to have the Android SDK and NDK available.
