<p>From my installation process on Ubuntu 13.10, I needed to install the following prerequisites:<br>
git, svn, ncurses, zlib, awk, XML::Parser </p>

<p>We should provide a bit of background on needing a Linux environment to build Commotion Router, and provide instructions for Debian systems (including Ubuntu, Mint, etc).<br>
We can instruct people to run something like:<br>
"apt-get install subversion build-essential libncurses5-dev zlib1g-dev gawk git ccache gettext libssl-dev xsltproc"<br>
"Additional packages may be required if errors occur during the build process:<br>
"apt-get install libxml-parser-perl"</p>

<p>Then the rest of the commands from <a href="https://wiki.commotionwireless.net/doku.php?id=development_resources:router:creating_commotion">https://wiki.commotionwireless.net/doku.php?id=development_resources:router:creating_commotion</a> work just fine.</p>
