## OpenFOAM® ThirdParty System Requirements
For building some particular third-party libraries from source,
the normal [OpenFOAM System Requirements][link openfoam-require]
may not be sufficient.
This is most notably the case for ParaView and/or QT compilation.
As duly noted in [BUILD][link third-build] and [README][link third-readme] information,
building ParaView from source tends to be the most difficult part of
any third-party compilation.
For general functionality, the paraview version distributed with
the operating system or a [binary package][download ParaView]
is likely adequate for your needs.
***Please help us with keeping the information here up-to-date and accurate.***
### Ubuntu
The full dependency list for building ParaView can be found from the
corresponding [debian/control][debian control] file.
A ***quick*** way to get these dependencies on to your system is to
use the paraview development package:
```
sudo apt install paraview-dev
```
Depending on your setup, the following subset may also be enough:
```
sudo apt install cmake qt5base-dev qttools5-dev qttools5-dev-tools libqt5opengl5-dev libqt5x11extras5-dev libxt-dev
```
### openSUSE
The full dependency list for building ParaView can be found from the
corresponding [rpm spec][suse spec] file.
A ***quick*** way to get these dependencies on to your system is to
use the paraview development package:
```
sudo zypper install paraview-devel
```
Depending on your setup, the following subset may also be enough:
```
sudo zypper install Mesa-libEGL-devel
sudo zypper install libqt5-qtbase-devel libqt5-qtsvg-devel libqt5-qttools-devel libqt5-qtx11extras
sudo zypper install libXt-devel
```
