Installation of Totem PL Parser

Install Totem PL Parser by running the following commands: 

./configure --prefix=/usr --disable-static &&

make

If you wish to run the test suite, disable two tests which fail, by running: 

sed -e '/g_test_add_func (\"\/parser\/parsability/d' \
    -e '/g_test_add_func (\"\/parser\/parsing\/xml_mixed_cdata/d' \
    -i plparse/tests/parser.c

To test the results, issue: make check. You will need an active internet connection in order to successfully complete all tests.

Now, as the root user: 

make install

Command Explanations

--disable-static: This switch prevents installation of static versions of the libraries.

--disable-quvi: This switch disables libquvi support (libquvi is broken with Lua-5.3).

--enable-gtk-doc: Use this parameter if GTK-Doc is installed and you wish to rebuild and install the API documentation.
