Install Simple-scan by running the following commands:
mkdir build && cd build && meson setup --prefix=/usr --buildtype=release .. && ninja
This package does not come with a test suite.
Now, as the root
user:
ninja install && gtk-update-icon-cache -qtf /usr/share/icons/hicolor
--buildtype=release
:
Specify a buildtype suitable for stable releases of the package, as
the default may produce unoptimized binaries.
gtk-update-icon-cache [...]: This command updates the system-wide GTK+ icon cache since Simple-scan's build system does not update it to account for the icons that it installs.
