This directory contains ports of popular 3rd-party applications to Genode.
The 'ports' repository follows the line of the 'libports' repository.
For instructions about downloading and building 3rd-party applications,
please refer to 'libports/README'.
Dependencies from other repositories
------------------------------------
Application provided by the 'ports' repository typically expect a rich
runtime environment, including shared libraries provided by the 'libports'
repository. Hence, 'ports' depends on 'libports'. Furthermore, applications
may require additional repositories. For example, the Arora web browser depends
on the 'qt4' repository.
