- operative system with a GLIBC compatible version for all platforms

Ex: If it's built on a Ubuntu 9.04 it won't run in a Debian etch

- external commands cp, ln, dpck

- external command make and cmake to build natives

- a workspace in built without errors and the directory _fwAndami/gvSIG contains

all the extensions
