For the main event loop, tinc uses the libevent library.
If this library is not installed, you wil get an error when configuring
tinc for build.
You can use your operating system's package manager to install this if
available. Make sure you install the development AND runtime versions
of this package.
If you have to install libevent manually, you can get the source code
from @url{http://monkey.org/~provos/libevent/}. Instructions on how to configure,
build and install this package are included within the package. Please
make sure you build development and runtime libraries (which is the
default).
