<listitem><para>Recent versions of Bison and Flex to build the

reentrancy support in Flex.) For Bison, you need version 2.6, which

server</link>. For Flex, you need version 2.5.35, which is
available on <link
xlink:href="http://lex.sourceforge.net/">SourceForge</link>.
Slightly older versions may also work, but ancient versions like the
ubiquitous 2.5.4a won't. Note that these are only required if you
modify the parser or when you are building from the Git
repository.</para></listitem>
<listitem><para>The <literal>libseccomp</literal> is used to provide
syscall filtering on Linux. This is an optional dependency and can

unless your system doesn't support
<literal>libseccomp</literal>). To get the library, visit <link
