+== Libraries ==
+Android-compatible replacements must be found for all [http://trac.wildfiregames.com/wiki/BuildInstructions#Linux the dependencies of the PC edition]. This is what we have so far:
+
+ * GCC - the Android NDK provides its own ndk-build tool for compiling.
+ * Subversion - assuming this is just for obtaining the source, this can be done on a PC workstation.
+ * SDL - is already [http://www.libsdl.org/tmp/SDL/README.android ported to Android].
+ * Boost - there is [https://github.com/MysticTreeGames/Boost-for-Android an unofficial port].
+ * zlib - libz is part of the native NDK.
+ * libpng - there's unofficial ports like [https://github.com/julienr/libpng-android this one].
+ * libxml2 - Google publishes [https://github.com/android/platform_external_libxml2 a tree] that is tuned to compile on Android.
+ * OpenGL - this must be ported to OpenGL ES.
+ * OpenAL - this should be ported to OpenSL ES.
+ * zip - not sure which exact library this refers to.
+ * libogg - may be covered by Tremor (below).
+ * libvorbis - this can be [http://www.badlogicgames.com/wordpress/?p=451 done with Tremor].
+ * libcurl - may be ported [http://thesoftwarerogue.blogspot.com/2010/05/porting-of-libcurl-to-android-os-using.html like this].
+ * Gamin - don't know about this one.
+ * CMake - all build tools are provided by the NDK.
