[SOLVED] weston build options?

lokal1 · 05-23-2021, 11:35 AM

Hello guys/gals,

Anyone built weston on current? What options are necessary to build.
I'm building weston-9.0 on rk3288 tinkerboard-s. It's complaining about libsystemd & libsystemd-login.

Last time I made a successful build was before the pandemic, I tricked it by symlinking to elogind
it's not working anymore. I can't remember what else I did to get it compiled back then.

I got the libsystemd complain sorted out. I had forgotten to also symlink the pkgconfig along with shared libraries.
Now it's the pangocairo though I have both pango and cairo installed.

use a basic build script

Thanks, that's what I'm using with some added options.

Code:

  -Dlauncher-logind=false \
  -Dweston-launch=true \
  -Dbackend-drm=true \
  -Dbackend-x11=false \
  -Dscreenshare=false \
  -Drenderer-gl=true \
  -Dxwayland=false \
  -Dbackend-rdp=false \
  -Dsystemd=false \
  -Dpipewire=false \
  -Dsimple-dmabuf-drm=auto \
  -Dcolor-management-colord=${USE_COLORD:-false} \
  -Dremoting=false

can't find pangocairo tho, I searched and libpangocairo is installed and the pkg configuration is there.
I suspect I'm missing a dependency for cairo or pango.

It's compiling right now, I was missing graphite2 used by pango.

Edit:
It builds, off to next hurdle :-)
