Installing xfce-terminal from source

wikimatze · 2014-12-20 06:42:25

Hi there,

I got the code from git://git.xfce.org/apps/xfce4-terminal and the README file says that I should look into the INSTALL file to get the information about how to install but this file is missing. Can somebody explain me how to compile and install it?

Best regards from Berlin,

Matthias

seems to be something like:

./autogen.sh && ./configure --prefix=/usr, etc... && make -j`nproc` && su -c "make install"

Thanks for your help, it get me working at least. Whenever I call `make check` I get the following output:

No rule to make target `terminal-enum-types.c', needed by `xfce4_terminal-terminal-enum-types.o'

Any idea what I'm missing? I already installed the libvte-dev, libgnomeui-dev, and libxfce4ui-1-dev packages.

./autogen.sh \
--prefix=/usr \
--sysconfdir=/etc \
--libexecdir=/usr/lib/xfce4 \
--localstatedir=/var \
--disable-static \

sudo make install

afaik, make check is only "advised", but not necessary so it's probably not supported, anyway fell free to open a request: https://bugzilla.xfce.org
