The repository will provide you a full set of all of the needed libraries. Take in mind that a lot of them are modified versions of the original ones so if you want to update them, take a look at this repository where you can find sourcecodes of every pre-builded library used in this repository.

Take in mind that libkhax includes also libSu sourcecode. Last but not least, please note that libjpeg.a file is a standard compilation of libjpeg-turbo.
