From b87a1c27c99821cea995112114eb40afa93417f2 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Ryan Ofsky Date: Sun, 1 Mar 2026 12:31:59 -0500 Subject: [PATCH] doc: Improve dependencies.md IPC documentation Improve dependencies.md to document IPC dependencies better: - Link to native_capnp.mk file not capnp.mk file so it's possible to see what version of Cap'n Proto is being used in release binaries. This is important since #31895 dropped the "Version Used" column and the capnp.mk file does not include version number. - Indicate Capn"Proto is used for IPC and link to multiprocess.md documenting the feature. - Link to correct PR requiring Cap'n Proto 0.7.1. Previous link was pointing at PR which required 0.7.0. - Mention libmultiprocess as a dependency even though it is included as a git subtree and can be built as a cmake subproject. Libmultiprocess still needs to be built separately when cross compiling, and is useful to build separately when developing, and is still a depends package.
