Install NetworkManager Applet by running the following commands:
mkdir build && cd build && meson --prefix=/usr \ --sysconfdir=/etc \ -Dselinux=false \ -Dteam=false \ -Dmobile_broadband_provider_info=false .. && ninja
To test the results, issue: ninja test.
Now, as the root
user:
ninja install
-Dteam=false
: This switch
disables the team configuration editor since it requires jansson-2.12. If you have Jansson installed,
remove this option or set it to "true".
-Denable-selinux=false
:
This switch forcibly disables SELinux support since it is not currently in
BLFS and the build will fail without it.
-Dmobile_broadband_provider_info=false
:
This switch forcibly disables Mobile Broadband Provider support
because it is not currently available in BLFS.
-Dwwan=false
: This switch disables WWAN
support. Use this if you do not have ModemManager-1.10.0 installed.
-Dintrospection=false
: Use this if you
do not have gobject-introspection-1.58.3
installed.
-Dgtk_doc=false
: Use this if you do not
have GTK-Doc-1.29 installed.
