Installation of Loupe
Install Loupe by running the following commands:
mkdir build &&
cd build &&
meson setup --prefix=/usr \
--buildtype=release \
.. &&
ninja
Running the test suite will rebuild the entire package with a different configuration, and the package will be built for three times if installing it after running the test suite. So it's better to run the test suite after the installation.
Now, as the root user:
ninja install
To test the results, issue: ninja test
Command Explanations
--buildtype=release:
Specify a buildtype suitable for stable releases of the package, as
the default may produce unoptimized binaries.
