Install Gjs by running the following commands:
mkdir gjs-build &&
cd gjs-build &&
meson setup --prefix=/usr \
--buildtype=release \
--wrap-mode=nofallback \
.. &&
ninja
To test the results, issue: ninja test in a graphical session.
Now, as the root user:
ninja install
--buildtype=release:
Specify a buildtype suitable for stable releases of the package, as
the default may produce unoptimized binaries.
--wrap-mode=nofallback:
This switch prevents meson from using subproject
fallbacks for any dependency declarations in the build files,
stopping it downloading any optional dependency which is not
installed on the system.
-D profiler=disabled: prevents building
the profiler backend even if sysprof is installed.
