I did a package check on our diskless headless server image based on RHEL5
and found all the packages were already installed.   Our image isn't stripped
down to any extent, so this may not be true for other headless servers.

P.S.   You can query the package names for the needed libraries with:
yum info freetype libgomp libX11 libXext bzip2 lcms libpng libxml2  fontconfig

I just tested a statically built version of the simDetector 
on a Linux system (marCCD) to which I had added no additional 
libraries, and it worked.  This means that the above 
libraries were indeed available as system libraries.

Can anyone comment on whether it is "safe" to count on the 
above libraries being available on "most" Linux systems?

Thanks,
Mark
    
Hi

I'm using the rather conservative RHEL5 and those are all present. I
suspect that any Gnome desktop system will have them installed. They
won't all be present on a headless server install.
