The Clutter package contains an open source software library used for creating fast, visually rich and animated graphical user interfaces.
This package is known to build and work properly using an LFS-7.6 platform.
Anything built with this toolkit needs hardware 3D acceleration from the graphics driver at runtime. This is provided by MesaLib (or by proprietary graphics drivers), but is not available for every graphics card nor for all virtual machines. You may wish to review Checking the DRI installation.

User Notes: http://wiki.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/wiki/clutter
Install Clutter by running the following commands:
./configure --prefix=/usr --sysconfdir=/etc --enable-egl-backend && make
To test the results, issue: make check (you must be in an xterm or similar to do this, because it launches some windows). Two tests have been observed to fail.
Now, as the root
user:
make install
--enable-egl-backend
: This
switch enables the experimental EGL windowing backend.
--enable-gtk-doc
: Use this parameter if
GTK-Doc is installed and you wish
to rebuild and install the API documentation.
