## Chapter 2. Building and Installing Bless

## Bless 0.6.0 requirements

The main target platform for Bless is GNU/Linux. However, all the libraries it uses are cross-platform, so Bless should be able to run without problems on all the major platforms (GNU/Linux, *BSD, Solaris, Win32).

To build and run Bless 0.6.0 you need:

- GTK+ >=2.8.x (Included in all modern GNU/Linux distributions, http://www.gtk.org)

- mono/.NET runtime and C# compiler >= 1.1.14 (http://www.mono-project.com)

- Gtk# >=2.8 bindings for GTK+ (http://gtk-sharp.sourceforge.net)

- pkg-config (Included in all modern GNU/Linux distributions)

### Note

Development is done using the latest stable versions of the above libraries. Although using an older version may be OK, there is no guarantee that there will not be problems.
