I'm trying to install PyGObject, so (I guess) I need to install jhbuild. I was following the tutorial that I found on https://developer.gnome.org/jhbuild/unstable/getting-started.html.pt_BR (I got there following the links on Python documentation, so it's probably the official installation guide)
I created a folder called jhbuild inside my user, and a folder called checkout, inside the folder jhbuild, and started a git bash there.
I ran cd jhbuild
, ./autogen.sh
Then the message `make' is required to configure & build jhbuild
I continued the tutorial anyway with make
, but the message bash: make: command not found appeared
What do I have to do to continuing the installation?
The error bash: make: command not found
indicates you don't have make on your system or in your PATH
.
You should install make
on your system. How depends on your operating system.
It has nothing to do with jhbuild per se.
In fact I'm building PyGobject in my MSYS2+MinGW-w64 environment completely without jhbuild, using meson and ninja.
If you're a beginner and you're on Windows the easiest way to get PyGObject is to use MSYS2 and install the mingw-w64-x86_64-python-gobject package (with pacman -S mingw-w64-x86_64-python-gobject
).
