Install libqalculate by running the following commands:
./configure --prefix=/usr \ --disable-static \ --docdir=/usr/share/doc/libqalculate-4.9.0 && make
To test the results, issue: make check.
Now, as the root
user:
make install
The libtool archive file from this package is referring to the libraries from ICU-74.1. Such a reference may cause packages depending on this package to be unnecessary linked against the ICU libraries and increase the burden to rebuild packages if ICU is updated to a new major version. As we've explained in Libtool archive (.la) files, these libtool archive files are unneeded anyway. So as the root
user, remove the libtool archive file now:
rm -v /usr/lib/libqalculate.la
--disable-static
: This switch prevents installation of static versions of the libraries.
