fontconfigFontconfig is a library designed to provide system-wide font configuration, customization and application access.
freetypeFreeType 2 is a software font engine that is designed to be small, efficient, highly customizable, and portable while capable of producing high-quality output (glyph images). It can be used in graphics libraries, display servers, font conversion tools, text image generation tools, and many other products as well.
Gdk-PixbufThe Gdk Pixbuf is a toolkit for image loading and pixel buffer manipulation. It is used by GTK+ 2 and GTK+ 3 to load and manipulate images. In the past it was distributed as part of GTK+ 2 but it was split off into a separate package in preparation for the change to GTK+ 3.
GL2PSGL2PS: an OpenGL to PostScript printing library
GLibGLib is one of the base libraries of the GTK+ project
gnuplotPortable interactive, function plotting utility
GraphicsMagickGraphicsMagick is the swiss army knife of image processing.
GTK3GTK+ is the primary library used to construct user interfaces in GNOME. It provides all the user interface controls, or widgets, used in a common graphical application. Its object-oriented API allows you to construct user interfaces without dealing with the low-level details of drawing and device interaction.

libvpxVPx are open and royalty free video compression formats owned by Google.
LittleCMSLittle CMS intends to be an OPEN SOURCE small-footprint color management engine, with special focus on accuracy and performance.
matplotlibmatplotlib is a python 2D plotting library which produces publication quality figures in a variety of hardcopy formats and interactive environments across platforms. matplotlib can be used in python scripts, the python and ipython shell, web application servers, and six graphical user interface toolkits.
MesaMesa is an open-source implementation of the OpenGL specification - a system for rendering interactive 3D graphics.
OpenGLOpen Graphics Library (OpenGL) is a cross-language, cross-platform application programming interface (API) for rendering 2D and 3D vector graphics. This module is a bundle of software required for OpenGL rendering. It provides Mesa as an open-source implementation of the OpenGL specification with software rendering and AMD GPU support, libglvnd for a vendor neutral dispatch layer for rendering with both NVIDIA GPUs & Mesa, Mesa-demos for sample applications, and GLU as an computer graphics library utilizing OpenGL.
OSPRayOpen, Scalable, and Portable Ray Tracing Engine
PangoPango is a library for laying out and rendering of text, with an emphasis on internationalization. Pango can be used anywhere that text layout is needed, though most of the work on Pango so far has been done in the context of the GTK+ widget toolkit. Pango forms the core of text and font handling for GTK+-2.x.
ParaViewParaView is a scientific parallel visualizer.
ParaView-CatalystParaView Catalyst provides a small, easy-to-use, API that any simulation developed in C++, C, Fortran or Python can use to do in situ analysis without developing its own custom data analysis code.
PillowPillow is the ‘friendly PIL fork’ by Alex Clark and Contributors. PIL is the Python Imaging Library by Fredrik Lundh and Contributors.
pixmanPixman is a low-level software library for pixel manipulation, providing features such as image compositing and trapezoid rasterization. Important users of pixman are the cairo graphics library and the X server.
PyQt6PyQt6 is a comprehensive set of Python bindings for Qt v6. It is implemented as more than 35 extension modules and enables Python to be used as an alternative application development language to C++. This bundle includes PyQtWebEngine, a set of Python bindings for The Qt Company’s Qt WebEngine framework.
QScintillaQScintilla is a port to Qt of Neil Hodgson’s Scintilla C++ editor control
TkTk is an open source, cross-platform widget toolchain that provides a library of basic elements for building a graphical user interface (GUI) in many different programming languages.
WaylandWayland is a project to define a protocol for a compositor to talk to its clients as well as a library implementation of the protocol. The compositor can be a standalone display server running on Linux kernel modesetting and evdev input devices, an X application, or a wayland client itself. The clients can be traditional applications, X servers (rootless or fullscreen) or other display servers.
X11The X Window System (X11) is a windowing system for bitmap displays
x264x264 is a free software library and application for encoding video streams into the H.264/MPEG-4 AVC compression format, and is released under the terms of the GNU GPL.
x265x265 is a free software library and application for encoding video streams into the H.265 AVC compression format, and is released under the terms of the GNU GPL.
xpropThe xprop utility is for displaying window and font properties in an X server. One window or font is selected using the command line arguments or possibly in the case of a window, by clicking on the desired window. A list of properties is then given, possibly with formatting information.
