2. Software packages you need to download

Below is a list of all the software that you need to download for use in this document. I display the sites and directories where you can download the software, but it is up to you to make sure you download the source archive and the latest version, unless mentioned otherwise. The list is ordered on usage, meaning that the first program you see in the list is the first program we'll build in this document.
