To build Openbox from CVS you need:

A C++ Compiler (GNU GCC/G++ 3.2+ suggested)
GNU Gettext 0.11.5
GNU Autoconf 2.50+
GNU Automake
GNU Libtool
Xft2 library/headers (devel package) (http://www.fontconfig.org)
Xlib library/headers (devel package)
Python library/headers (devel package) (http://www.python.org)

Optional:
SWIG 1.3.17+ (http://www.swig.org)
  *** If you don't want to get swig, thats fine, unless you're going to be
  *** editing stuff.
  *** Without SWIG, before you build CVS _every time you update_ you need to:
  ***
  *** % touch src/openbox.i
  *** % touch src/openbox_wrap.cc
  ***
  *** This is because of how CVS deals with timestamps.


I recommend the latest version of all these packages.
