Fix the location to install the API documentation:
sed "/docdir =/s@\$@ / 'nautilus-43.2'@" -i meson.build
Install Nautilus by running the following commands:
mkdir build &&
cd build &&
meson --prefix=/usr \
--buildtype=release \
-Dselinux=false \
-Dpackagekit=false \
.. &&
ninjaTo test the results, issue: ninja test. The tests need to be run in a graphical environment. One test is known to fail if tracker-miners-3.4.3 is not installed.
Now, as the root user:
ninja install

was not updated/created. Create (or update) the file using the following
command as the root user:
glib-compile-schemas /usr/share/glib-2.0/schemas
--buildtype=release: Specify a buildtype
suitable for stable releases of the package, as the default may
