   * Perl 5.16.0+, with all of the following modules:
     * ''ExtUtils::Embed'', which some distributions ship separately as ''perl-ExtUtils-Embed''
-    * ''XML::LibXML'', ''XML::LibXSLT'', and ''XML::Writer''
+    * ''XML::SAX''
     * ''Term::ReadLine::Gnu''
     * ''Term::ReadKey''
+    * ''JSON''
   * [[http://gmplib.org/|GMP library]] 5.1.0+ . Some Linux vendors split the GMP in two packages, shared libraries and development stuff.  Please install both. You also need to enable/install the C++ bindings for polymake version 2.11+.
   * [[http://www.mpfr.org/|MPFR library]] 3.0.0+ . Again both shared libraries and development stuff are required.
   * [[http://www.boost.org/|boost]] headers. The basic ''libboost-dev'' should suffice, no shared libraries are required for boost.
+  * [[http://flintlib.org/|FLINT]] 2.5.2+. (This dependency is strongly recommended but can be disabled if it cannot be fulfilled)

 **Note:** If you are installing polymake in your home-directory, i.e. you have set ''%%--prefix%%'', you should omit ''sudo'' in the above commands.
-==== Building the documentation ====
-Finally, to obtain a copy of the reference documentation in HTML format (gathering everything you can get with interactive ''help'' commands a one place), run
-  sudo make release-docs
-This will create all files in the documentation directory chosen during the configuration, again omit sudo for a user-install. By default the documentation will be installed into ''/usr/local/share/polymake/doc''.
-If you have already used polymake and installed extensions to polymake then to include them for the documentation, run
-  sudo make docs
-Should you import or create a new extension later, you can also run the polymake script ''generate_docs'' to complete your documentation.

-There does not seem to be a ninja package for Scientific Linux, you can either fetch a generic binary or built it from source, see [[https://ninja-build.org/|here]] for details.
 For visualization via jreality ''java-1.8.0-openjdk-devel'' and ''and-antlr'' are needed, passing ''%%--with-java=/usr/lib/jvm/java%%'' to configure should help with the java detection.
