Hello, there.
|
|
|

Using CMake to build Conky is pretty easy, and here is how I do it:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
1. From the top level source dir, create a build working dir, and cd into it
|
|
|
|
|
$ mkdir build
|
|
|
|
|
$ cd build
|
|
|
|
|
2. Run the cmake configuration process
|
|
|
|
|
$ cmake ../ # pass the path to the sources to cmake
|
|
|
|
|
OR
|
|
|
|
|
$ ccmake ../ # you can also use the fance curses interface, or try cmake-gui
|
|
|
|
|
3. Compile as usual, and enjoy the out-of-source goodness
|
|
|
|
|
$ make
|
|
|
|
|
# make install # if you want
|
|
|
|

There are a number of build options for Conky, and the best way to discover
|
|
|
|
|
them is to use the ccmake (or cmake-gui) CMake tool for browsing them.

Certain Conky build time features (such as doc generation) require third-party
|
|
|
|
|
applications, which you should be notified of via CMake. In the case of doc
|
|
|
|
|
generation, you'll need the docbook2X package (available on most
|
|
|
|
|
distributions).
