# If you want to uninstall pixman, or clean up files from an old version
# before installing the new one, skip down to the bottom for instructions.

# Prerequisites:
# Perl
# pkg-config
# GTK+ (optional)
# libpng (optional)

# Get the tarball
cd
test -f installed/pixman-0.42.2.tar.gz &&
mv installed/pixman-0.42.2.tar.gz .
test ! -f pixman-0.42.2.tar.gz &&
wget https://cairographics.org/releases/pixman-0.42.2.tar.gz

# Get the sha512sum file
wget -nc https://cairographics.org/releases/\
pixman-0.42.2.tar.gz.sha512

# Verify the sha512 file w/ gpg:
( gpg --list-keys 5EAF21049A86B8A54CCB1BFAACEB29740C9A4E97 > /dev/null 2>&1 ||
  gpg --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv-keys \
   5EAF21049A86B8A54CCB1BFAACEB29740C9A4E97 ) &&
wget -nc https://cairographics.org/releases/\
pixman-0.42.2.tar.gz.sha512.asc &&
  gpg --verify pixman-0.42.2.tar.gz.sha512.asc pixman-0.42.2.tar.gz.sha512 &&
   rm pixman-0.42.2.tar.gz.sha512.asc

# Now actually check the sha512sum:
cat pixman-0.42.2.tar.gz.sha512 | sha512sum -c

# Extract the source
mkdir -p -m 0700 ~/src
cd ~/src
find -maxdepth 1 -type d -name "pixman-*" -exec rm -r {} \;
tar xzvf ~/pixman-0.42.2.tar.gz
cd pixman-0.42.2

# Configure the build for 64-bit
test $(uname -m) = 'x86_64' && ./configure --prefix=/usr --libdir=/usr/lib64

# Configure the build for anything else
test $(uname -m) != 'x86_64' && ./configure --prefix=/usr

# Build it
make

# Become root to install it
su

# Remove the Slackware package, if there is one
test -x /sbin/removepkg && /sbin/removepkg pixman

# Install it
make install
ldconfig

# If you upgraded an old version with this one, look for old files here.
# Generally if the date is not today, and you already ran 'make install',
# then it's no longer part of pixman.  It probably can't hurt any to just
# leave old shared library files there, the symlinks should be automatically
# updated when you upgrade it.
# /usr/include/pixman-1
# /usr/lib*/libpixman-1.*

# Make sure your non-root user can remove the source later
chown -R $(logname) .
chmod -R u+w .

# Become yourself again
exit

# Save the source for later
cd
mkdir -p -m 0700 installed
rm -f installed/pixman-*.tar.*
mv pixman-0.42.2.tar.gz installed/

# If you ever want to uninstall pixman, this should do it:
cd
su
test -d src/pixman-* && ( cd src/pixman-* ; make uninstall )
for libdir in /usr/lib /usr/lib64;
do
  test -d $libdir &&
