## Installation of Gtk VNC

Install Gtk VNC by running the following commands:

    mkdir build &&
    cd    build &&

    meson --prefix=/usr --buildtype=release .. &&
    ninja

This package does not come with a testsuite.

Now, as the `root` user:

    ninja install

## Command Explanations

`-Dwith-vala=false`: This switch disables building of the Vala bindings. Add this if you decide to build gtk-vnc without vala installed.
