More info and packages available at https://www.parlatype.xyz.

The following instructions are for developers, contributors and those who want to have the latest version from the main branch.

Build from source

Dependencies

To build Parlatype from source you need these packages:

Optional, depending on your configured options:

Runtime dependencies:

On Debian-based distros install these packages:

$ sudo apt-get install meson build-essential libgirepository1.0-dev gtk-doc-tools yelp-tools libgtk-4-dev libgtk-4-1 libadwaita-1-dev iso-codes libgstreamer1.0-dev libgstreamer1.0-0 libgstreamer-plugins-base1.0-dev gstreamer1.0-plugins-good gstreamer1.0-plugins-ugly libsphinxbase-dev libpocketsphinx-dev

On Fedora this should work:

$ su -c 'dnf install meson gcc gobject-introspection-devel gtk-doc yelp-tools gtk4-devel libadwaita-devel iso-codes-devel gstreamer1-devel gstreamer1-plugins-base-devel gstreamer1-plugins-good gstreamer1-plugins-ugly sphinxbase-devel pocketsphinx-devel'

Configure options

Parlatype ships its own library, libparlatype.
Developers might be interested in having a library documentation and GObject introspection.
These are the configurable options:

Build

Clone the repository or download a tarball from https://github.com/gkarsay/parlatype/releases/.

$ meson setup build --prefix=/usr
$ cd build
$ ninja
$ sudo ninja install

You can use any prefix but you may have to adjust LD_LIBRARY_PATH for other prefixes.
In this case Meson prints a message with those paths.
