User Notes: https://wiki.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/wiki/gnome-shell
Install GNOME Shell by running the following commands:
mkdir build && cd build && meson --prefix=/usr --buildtype=release .. && ninja
To test the results, issue: ninja test. You must be running an X session to run the tests. Some will fail if GDM-40.1 is not installed.
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.
-Dextensions=false
: This option
disables building the gnome-extensions CLI tool. Using
this option removes the need for asciidoc-9.1.0.
