There’s an AUR open-tv package for Arch/Artix/…, and there’s even an AUR open-tv-bin version, but I prefer looking at the build recipes if available, and if not using Arch/Artix/… one can read through the PKGBUILD and see how it builds.

available on AUR for Arch and derivatires

The AUR PKGBUILD shows a pretty simple recipe:

build() {
  arch-meson "${pkgname}-${pkgver//+/-}" build
  meson compile -C build
}

package() {
  meson install -C build --destdir "${pkgdir}"
  # permission fix
  chmod 755 "${pkgdir}/usr/bin/ascii-draw"
}

I’ve been seeing arch-meson often used, but haven’t explored what it does. Some day…

Though it’s way more fun to use text specification, like the one referenced by @[email protected]
