Select device(s) as neededInstall Cheese by running the following commands:
mkdir build && cd build && meson --prefix=/usr --buildtype=release -Dgtk_doc=false .. && ninja
This package does not have a working testsuite.
Now, as the root user:
ninja install
--buildtype=release:
Specify a buildtype suitable for stable releases of the package, as
the default may produce unoptimized binaries.
-Dgtk_doc=false: This
switch prevents the build system from generating and installing the
API documentation. Omit this switch if you have GTK-Doc-1.33.2 installed and wish to generate
and install the API documentation. Building the documentation is
broken due to an incompatibility with gtk-doc.
