lxqt-build-tools
Introduction
This repository is providing several tools needed to build LXQt itself as well as other components maintained by the LXQt project.
These tools used to be spread over the repositories of various other components and were summarized to ease dependency management. So far many components, in particular liblxqt, were representing a build dependency without being needed themselves but only because their repository was providing a subset of the tools which are now summarized here. So the use of this repository will reduce superfluous and bloated dependencies.
Installation
Compiling sources
To build only CMake and Qt5Core are needed, optionally Git to pull VCS checkouts. Runtime dependencies do not exist.
Code configuration is handled by CMake. CMake variable CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX
has to be set to /usr
on most operating systems.
To build run make
, to install make install
which accepts variable DESTDIR
as usual. (Strictly speaking make
isn't even needed right now. On the other hand it doesn't hurt so packagers may just include it in case it'll be needed one day.)
Binary packages
The repository was introduced in September 2016 and binary packages are rare so far. On Arch Linux an AUR package lxqt-build-tools-git can be used to build current checkouts of branch master
.
