`htop` has a set of fixed optional dependencies, depending on build/configure option used:

* `libdl`, if not building a static binary, is always required when support for to optionally dependencies (i.e. `libsensors`, `libsystemd`) is present.
* `libcap`, user-space interfaces to the POSIX 1003.1e, is always required when `--enable-capabilities` was used to configure `htop`.

* `libsensors`, readout of temperatures and CPU speeds, is optional even when `--enable-sensors` was used to configure `htop`.
* `libsystemd` is optional when `--enable-static` was not used to configure `htop`. If building statically and `libsystemd` is not found by `configure`, support for the systemd meter is disabled entirely.
