User Notes: https://wiki.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/wiki/telepathy-glib
If you intend to run the tests, one of them defaults to invoking
/usr/bin/python and fails if it is
absent, causing the second batch of tests to not run - unlike the
other tests which can be overridden from the environment. Fix it
with the following command:
sed -i 's%/usr/bin/python%&3%' tests/all-errors-documented.py
Install Telepathy GLib by running the following commands:
PYTHON=/usr/bin/python3 ./configure --prefix=/usr \
--enable-vala-bindings \
--disable-static &&
make
To test the results, issue: make check.
Now, as the root user:
make install
--enable-vala-bindings:
This switch enables building of the Vala bindings. Remove if you
don't have Vala-0.56.4 installed.
--disable-static: This
switch prevents installation of static versions of the libraries.
--enable-gtk-doc: Use this parameter if
GTK-Doc is installed and you wish
to rebuild and install the API documentation.
