Fix the location to install the API documentation:
sed "/docdir =/s@\$@ / 'nautilus-45.1'@" -i meson.build
Install Nautilus by running the following commands:
mkdir build &&
cd build &&
meson setup --prefix=/usr \
--buildtype=release \
-Dselinux=false \
-Dpackagekit=false \
.. &&
ninjaTo test the results, issue: ninja test. The tests need to be run in a graphical environment. One test is known to fail if tracker-miners-3.6.2 is not installed. One test is also known to timeout if the user running the tests has a large home directory.
Now, as the root user:
ninja install
If you installed the package to your system using a
“DESTDIR” method,
/usr/share/glib-2.0/schemas/gschemas.compiled
was not updated/created. Create (or update) the file using the following
command as the root user:
glib-compile-schemas /usr/share/glib-2.0/schemas
--buildtype=release: Specify a buildtype
suitable for stable releases of the package, as the default may
produce unoptimized binaries.
-Dselinux=false: This switch disables the use
of selinux which isn't supported by BLFS.
-Dpackagekit=false: This switch disables the use
of PackageKit which isn't suitable for BLFS.
-Dcloudproviders=false: Use this switch if you do not
have libcloudproviders-0.3.5 installed.
