12 You may need to install the following packages on your Linux
13 system before starting the installation. Some systems will do
14 this for you automatically when you install Oracle VM VirtualBox.

16 <ul>
17 <li>
18 <p>
19 Qt 5.3.2 or later. Qt 5.6.2 or later is recommended.
20 </p>
21 </li>
22 <li>
23 <p>
24 SDL 1.2.7 or later. This graphics library is typically
25 called <filepath>libsdl</filepath> or similar.

27 </li>
28 </ul>

31 These packages are only required if you want to run the
32 Oracle VM VirtualBox graphical user interfaces. In particular,
33 <userinput>VirtualBox</userinput>, the graphical VirtualBox
34 Manager, requires both Qt and SDL. If you only want to run
35 <userinput>VBoxHeadless</userinput>, neither Qt nor SDL are
36 required.
