Non-Multilib

With cMake

Create a build directory as recommended in the documentation:

cd build

Prepare the package for compilation:

cmake .. -DPREFIX=/usr

The -DPREFIX=/usr ensures that weechat will be installed in /usr directory. Specifify any directory if you want to install it in another location.

Compile the package:

make

Finally, as root user, install the package:

make install

Without cMake

If you don't have cMake installed, you'll use autotools.

Compile the package:

./configure --prefix=/usr --sysconfdir=/etc &&
make

Install the package

make install

Multilib

This package does not provide any external libraries, only plugins, so only one installation is needed.

Compile the package:

CC="gcc ${BUILD64}" USE_ARCH=64 \
./configure --prefix=/usr --sysconfdir=/etc \
    --libdir=/usr/lib64 &&
