+## Installing software used in this guide
pkgin should have been installed by the NetBSD installer if you selected
the right options. If it isn't installed, install it using pkg_add.
The `mksh` shell is needed to run the Elixir `mix` script.
-`# pkgin install acmesh elixir git-base git-docs mksh nginx postgresql11-server postgresql11-client postgresql11-contrib sudo`
+`# pkgin install acmesh elixir git-base git-docs mksh nginx postgresql11-server postgresql11-client postgresql11-contrib sudo ffmpeg4 ImageMagick`
You can also build these packages using pkgsrc:
```
databases/postgresql11-server
devel/git-base
devel/git-docs
+devel/cmake
lang/elixir
security/acmesh
security/sudo
First, run `# /etc/rc.d/pgsql start`. Then, `$ sudo -Hu pgsql -g pgsql createdb`.
+### Install media / graphics packages (optional, see [`docs/installation/optional/media_graphics_packages.md`](../installation/optional/media_graphics_packages.md))
+
+`# pkgin install ImageMagick ffmpeg4 p5-Image-ExifTool`

+$ MIX_ENV=prod mix pleroma.instance gen # You will be asked a few questions here.
