User Notes: https://wiki.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/wiki/dvisvgm
To enable the build system to link to libkpathsea.so, as the root user create a symlink from /usr/lib:
ln -svf /opt/texlive/2021/lib/libkpathsea.so /usr/lib
The testsuite assumes that a modern version of Python has been installed as plain
python. Changing this
to use python3
requires a sed to one Makefile.in
file.
Install dvisvgm by running the following commands:
sed -i 's/python/&3/' tests/Makefile.in &&
./configure \
--bindir=/opt/texlive/2021/bin/${TEXARCH} \
--mandir=/opt/texlive/2021/texmf-dist/doc/man \
--with-kpathsea=/opt/texlive/2021 &&
make
To test the results, issue: make check.
Now, as the root user:
make install
ln -svf /opt/texlive/2021/lib/libkpathsea.so /usr/lib: Without this, the program will not link correctly,
autoreconf -fiv: The versions of autoconf and automake used when this package was created are older than the current versions in LFS. That causes 'make' to fail when it reaches the 'tests' subdirectory unless autoreconf is forced to install missing (i.e. newer) auxiliary files.
--with-kpathsea=/opt/texlive/2021:
This allows the build system to find the headers for kpathsea
