Installation of libshumate

Install libshumate by running the following commands:

mkdir build &&
cd    build &&

meson setup --prefix=/usr          \
            --buildtype=release    \
            --wrap-mode=nodownload \
            -D gtk_doc=false       \
            ..                     &&
ninja

If you have Gi-DocGen-2024.1 installed and wish to build the API documentation for this package, issue:

sed -e 's/lib_version/version/' \
    -i ../docs/meson.build      &&
meson configure -D gtk_doc=true &&
ninja

To test the results, issue: ninja test.

Now, as the root user:

ninja install

Command Explanations

--buildtype=release: Specify a buildtype suitable for stable releases of the package, as the default may produce unoptimized binaries.

--wrap-mode=nodownload: This switch prevents meson from downloading any optional dependency which is not installed on the system.
