User Notes: http://wiki.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/wiki/gnome-session
When running Gnome under Wayland-1.15.0, environment settings are not imported for the user using the system profile. The Wayland developers are currently undecided on a standard method to provide system environment settings for user sessions. To work around this limitation, execute the following command to make gnome-session use a login shell:
sed 's@/bin/sh@/bin/sh -l@' -i gnome-session/gnome-session.in
Install GNOME Session by running the following commands:
mkdir build && cd build && meson --prefix=/usr .. && ninja
This package does not come with a test suite.
Now, as the root
user:
ninja install
