If you have Gi-DocGen-2023.1 installed and wish to build
the API documentation for this package, issue:
sed "/docs_dir =/s@\$@ / 'gdk-pixbuf-2.42.10'@" -i ../docs/meson.build &&
meson configure -Dgtk_doc=true &&
ninja
To test the results, issue: ninja
test. The tests make a heavy use of disk.
Now, as the root
user:
ninja install
Note
If you installed the package on to your system using a
“DESTDIR” method, an important file
was not installed and should be copied and/or generated. Generate
it using the following command as the root
user:
gdk-pixbuf-query-loaders --update-cache
Command Explanations
--buildtype=release
:
Specify a buildtype suitable for stable releases of the package, as
the default may produce unoptimized binaries.
--wrap-mode=nofallback
:
This switch prevents meson from using subproject
fallbacks for any dependency declarations in the build files,
stopping it downloading any optional dependency which is not
installed on the system.
-Dman=false
: Use this option if you do
not want to generate manual pages, or if you do not want to install
docutils-0.19.
