[Question] Which build dependencies can I remove
abrac opened this issue · comments
Prerequisites
- I have searched the Issues list for open and closed issues and believe this is a unique, currently unreported bug.
Describe the question
I installed Vocal by manually compiling from source (because the Flatpak takes too much storage space). I installed the following build depencies as given in readme.md
. Would somebody be able to advise me which dependencies I can remove without breaking the application? Would they be the packages ending with -dev
?
libsecret-1-dev
libclutter-gst-3.0-dev
sqlite3
libwebkit2gtk-4.0-dev
libgee-0.8-dev
gir1.2-granite-1.0
libgranite-dev
libgranite5
Platform Information
Please share as many of the following details as possible:
- Linux distrubution: Ubuntu
- OS version: 20.10
- Desktop environment: Gnome
- I'm using the latest version from git that I've manually compiled
Hello @abrac,
We've re-written most of the application from the ground up, and dependencies are still a bit "fluid" at the moment, but with our recent changes, you can remove the following dependencies from your list:
- libclutter-gst-3.0-dev
- gir1.2-granite-1.0
- libgranite-dev
- libgranite5
We have removed Granite as a dependency, and clutter is no longer needed because we've (temporarily?) removed video support. I hope that helps!
