Compiling phoc and phosh from source on a device
Yeah I did this crazy thing to rebuild phoc and phosh from source, on the device, and execute it. This was to test phosh 0.20 and fix bugs in phosh. I did this as root on Samsung Janice which is a dual-core Cortex-A9. It took some time to compile but not forever. Phoc is quick, phosh takes an hour+.
Add required packages
apk add gcc cmake meson ninja musl-dev fribidi-dev gcr-dev gnome-desktop-dev libgudev-dev pulseaudio-dev callaudiod-dev networkmanager-dev polkit-dev elogind-dev polkit-elogind-dev libsecret-dev upower-dev linux-pam-dev glade-dev feedbackd-dev libhandy1-dev gtk+3.0-dev libinput-dev libseat-dev xcb-util-wm-dev libxcb-dev
Clone the phoc and phosh source code
mkdir /src && cd /src && git clone https://gitlab.gnome.org/World/Phosh/phoc.git && git clone https://gitlab.gnome.org/World/Phosh/phosh.git
Compile phoc and phosh
cd /src/phoc && meson . _build && ninja -C _build
cd /src/phosh && meson . _build && ninja -C _build
Execute the development versions by default
Edit /var/lib/tinydm/default-session.desktop
Set:
Exec=dbus-run-session /src/phoc/_build/run -C /src/phosh/data/phoc.ini -E /src/phosh/_build/run
It should come up when you reboot.
Get debug messages out
Modify the last line of /src/phosh/_build/run to something like this:
exec ${WRAPPER} "${ABS_BUILDDIR}/src/phosh" -U $@ > /var/tmp/phosh.log
Then use g_debug() to print debug messages and they will appear in the log file.
