3.2 Required libraries

Knot DNS requires few libraries to be compiled:

If libcap-ng library is available, Knot DNS will take advantage of the POSIX 1003.1e capabilites(7) by sandboxing the exposed threads. Most rights are stripped from the exposed threads for security reasons.

You can probably find OpenSSL and zlib libraries already included in your system or distribution. If not, zlib resides at http://zlib.net, and OpenSSL can be found at http://www.openssl.org.
