#4 Mention dependencies on libzstd and libxxhash

Yesterday when trying to build the anu crate, compilation failed because I didn’t have libzstd and libxxhash installed on my system. They should be added to your list of requirements.

I already updated this, see:

https://anu.dev/documentation/getting_started.html

Is there another place where this should be mentionned?

Not that I know of, thanks!

Maybe it would be a smoother experience if the libs where statically linked? I know there is at least:

  • https://crates.io/crates/twox-hash

There is also gitoxide-core, but that’s probably a bit young.

The problem here, is that xxHash is a dependency of a C library (zstd-seekable), not of Rust.
