If you have installed a minimal Linux version without UI for the rrClient or rrServer daemon,
then you have to check for these dependencies:
Package Name |
Provides library |

libxkbcommon |
libxkbcommon.so.0 |
rrWorkstationInstaller (*) |
libxkbcommon-x11 |
libxkbcommon-x11.so.0 |

Note that the rrWorkstationInstaller, which is required to install the autostart service/deamon checks for the existance of XWindows libs.
Even if you execute it in commandline mode (see rrWorkstationInstaller --help), it still requires the libraries to exist.
XWindows libs are not used in commandline mode, but Linux verifies they exist in case you might want to start rrWorkstationInstaller in UI mode.
