## Installation of File Roller

Install File Roller by running the following commands:

    mkdir build &&
    cd    build &&

    meson --prefix=/usr -Dpackagekit=false .. &&
    ninja

This package does not come with a test suite.

Now, as the `root` user:

    ninja install &&
    chmod -v 0755 /usr/libexec/file-roller/isoinfo.sh

### Note

If you installed the package to your system using a “DESTDIR” method, `/usr/share/glib-2.0/schemas/gschemas.compiled` was not updated/created. Create (or update) the file using the following command as the `root` user:

    glib-compile-schemas /usr/share/glib-2.0/schemas

### Note

This package installs icon files into the `/usr/share/icons/hicolor` hierarchy and desktop files into the `/usr/share/applications` hierarchy. You can improve system performance and memory usage by updating `/usr/share/icons/hicolor/index.theme` and `/usr/share/applications/mimeinfo.cache`. To perform the update you must have GTK+-2.24.32 or GTK+-3.24.10 installed (for the icon cache) and desktop-file-utils-0.24 (for the desktop cache) and issue the following commands as the `root` user:

    gtk-update-icon-cache -qtf /usr/share/icons/hicolor &&
    update-desktop-database -q

## Command Explanations

`-Dpackagekit=false`: This switch disables the use of PackageKit which isn't suitable for BLFS.
