User Notes: http://wiki.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/wiki/libsecret
Install libsecret by running the following commands:
./configure --prefix=/usr --disable-static && make
Now, as the root user:
make install
To test the results, issue: make -k check, after the package is installed. Test suite should be run from a local GUI session started with dbus-launch. Some tests might still fail and hang, for unknown reasons.
--disable-static: This
switch prevents installation of static versions of the libraries.
--enable-gtk-doc: Use this parameter if
GTK-Doc is installed and you wish
to rebuild and install the API documentation.
--disable-manpages: Use this switch if
you have not installed libxslt-1.1.28
and DocBook packages.
--disable-gcrypt: Use this switch if
you have not installed the recommended dependency of libgcrypt-1.6.2.
