Install NetworkManager Applet by running the following commands:
./configure --prefix=/usr \ --sysconfdir=/etc \ --disable-static \ --without-selinux \ --without-team && make
To test the results, issue: make check.
Now, as the root
user:
make install
--disable-static
: This
switch prevents installation of static versions of the libraries.
--without-team
: This switch
disables the team configuration editor since it requires
Jansson which is not currently in
BLFS.
--without-selinux
: This
switch forcibly disables SELinux
support since it is not currently in BLFS and the build will fail
without it.
--without-wwan
: This switch disables
WWAN support. Use this if you do not have ModemManager-1.6.8 installed.
