User Notes: http://wiki.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/wiki/hexchat
First, fix the python plugin:
sed -i "s/(python_opt/& + '-embed'/" plugins/python/meson.build
Install HexChat by running the following commands:
mkdir build && cd build && meson --prefix=/usr -Dwith-libproxy=false -Dwith-lua=false .. && ninja
This package does not come with a test suite.
Now, as the root
user:
ninja install
-Dwith-lua=false
: By
default, this package will look for luajit. However, the Lua plugin
support is currently broken and will cause the application to crash
on startup.
-Dwith-libcanberra=false
: Use this
switch if you have libcanberra not installed.
