Installation of gegl
If installing over a previous version of gegl,
one module needs to be removed. As the root
user, run:
rm -f /usr/lib/gegl-0.4/vector-fill.so
Install gegl by running the following commands:
mkdir build &&
cd build &&
meson setup --prefix=/usr --buildtype=release .. &&
ninja
To run the tests, issue: ninja test. 7 tests in the
gegl:ff-load-save portion of the test suite are
known to fail due to incompatibilities with ffmpeg-6.0.
Now, as the root user:
ninja install
