Subject: A general way to install all dependent libraries when compiling Emacs from its git master source code.
Date: Sun, 22 Aug 2021 21:05:06 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <CAGP6PO+xT+6AO6whmbZm63rmQyxQ4Ss+cd6WH510va8Cia_0WA@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

It's well known that Emacs relies on a number of libraries for its
functionality. On the other hand, different operating systems have
different package/library management tools and even the same library
may have different names when installed on different operating
systems. It would be handy if we had a common way to install all the
dependent libraries when compiling Emacs from its Git Master source.
For this purpose, I've noticed the vcpkg tool [1]. But I'm not sure if
there are some people here have some experiences for using this or the
similar tools to solve this problem mentioned above.

Any hints will be appreciated.
