The_book · 11-28-2021, 04:20 AM

I am trying to build Calibre (I know that Calibre can be debugged by setting environment variables, I just want to try). But I find even just building the dependencies is difficult. The following are some of my questions.
I see that a dependency source.json is provided, do I need to download all the source code and compile them one by one? Or there is a better way to do this?
If I only compile Calibre for Linux, do I need to download items that do not contain linux in the 'os' item?
Are there more instructions on how to build Calibre's dependencies? I am a little confused now.
