#Tilix Build on FreeBSD

https://github.com/gnunn1/tilix/issues/1168

#Installing D

• Install ldc and dub via pkg: sudo pkg install ldc dub
• Install gcc and pkgconf

#Building & Installing Tilix

dub build --build=release -v

The build will fail in the linking step so you have to manually link it. Take the linker command and remove -ldl and replace it with -lX11:

/usr/local/bin/ldc2 -disable-linker-strip-dead ... -L=-ldl -vcolumns

into:

/usr/local/bin/ldc2 -disable-linker-strip-dead ... -L=-lX11 -vcolumns

Re-run dub build --build=release -v, which will ensure the final binary is copied into the right place in the source directory for installing.

Install with the install script:

sudo ./install.sh /usr/local/stow/tilix-1.8.5
sudo rm tilix-1.8.5/share/glib-2.0/schemas/gschemas.compiled
sudo xstow tilix-1.8.5
sudo glib-compile-schemas /usr/local/share/glib-2.0/schemas/
