Nvidia building : Here
Most of our dependencies are disponible in the official repos, for speed is recomendable to use nala package manager intead of apt
installing nala will keep apt
sudo apt-get install -y nala
sudo nala install -y meson wget build-essential ninja-build cmake-extras cmake gettext gettext-base fontconfig libfontconfig-dev libffi-dev libxml2-dev libdrm-dev libxkbcommon-x11-dev libxkbregistry-dev libxkbcommon-dev libpixman-1-dev libudev-dev libseat-dev seatd libxcb-dri3-dev libvulkan-dev libvulkan-volk-dev vulkan-validationlayers-dev libvkfft-dev libgulkan-dev libegl-dev libgles2 libegl1-mesa-dev glslang-tools libinput-bin libinput-dev libxcb-composite0-dev libavutil-dev libavcodec-dev libavformat-dev libxcb-ewmh2 libxcb-ewmh-dev libxcb-present-dev libxcb-icccm4-dev libxcb-render-util0-dev libxcb-res0-dev libxcb-xinput-dev libpango1.0-dev xdg-desktop-portal-wlr hwdata-devor if you don't want to use nala apt replacement do:
sudo apt-get install -y meson wget build-essential ninja-build cmake-extras cmake gettext gettext-base fontconfig libfontconfig-dev libffi-dev libxml2-dev libdrm-dev libxkbcommon-x11-dev libxkbregistry-dev libxkbcommon-dev libpixman-1-dev libudev-dev libseat-dev seatd libxcb-dri3-dev libvulkan-dev libvulkan-volk-dev vulkan-validationlayers-dev libvkfft-dev libgulkan-dev libegl-dev libgles2 libegl1-mesa-dev glslang-tools libinput-bin libinput-dev libxcb-composite0-dev libavutil-dev libavcodec-dev libavformat-dev libxcb-ewmh2 libxcb-ewmh-dev libxcb-present-dev libxcb-icccm4-dev libxcb-render-util0-dev libxcb-res0-dev libxcb-xinput-dev xdg-desktop-portal-wlr hwdata-dev
but some dependencies that we requiere are a little older in the repos so we need to build them
first get all of our sources for building then extarct them
Hyprland and containing folder
mkdir HyprSource
cd HyprSource
## We get Source
wget https://github.com/hyprwm/Hyprland/releases/download/v0.24.1/source-v0.24.1.tar.gz
tar -xvf source-v0.24.1.tar.gz
wget https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/wayland/wayland-protocols/-/releases/1.31/downloads/wayland-protocols-1.31.tar.xz
tar -xvJf wayland-protocols-1.31.tar.xz
wget https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/wayland/wayland/-/releases/1.22.0/downloads/wayland-1.22.0.tar.xz
tar -xzvJf wayland-1.22.0.tar.xz
wget https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/emersion/libdisplay-info/-/releases/0.1.1/downloads/libdisplay-info-0.1.1.tar.xz
tar -xvJf libdisplay-info-0.1.1.tar.xz
now only get inside each one, we build and install directly
cd wayland-1.22.0
mkdir build &&
cd build &&
meson setup .. \
--prefix=/usr \
--buildtype=release \
-Ddocumentation=false &&
ninja
sudo ninja install
cd ../..cd wayland-protocols-1.31
mkdir build &&
cd build &&
meson setup --prefix=/usr --buildtype=release &&
ninja
sudo ninja install
cd ../..
cd libdisplay-info-0.1.1/
mkdir build &&
cd build &&
meson setup --prefix=/usr --buildtype=release &&
ninja
sudo ninja install
cd ../..you will need to change the folder permisions due to the use of sudo, so in the future you can acces and modify the folder
chmod a+rw hyprland-source
cd hyprland-source/modify config.mk and change PREFIX=/usr/local to PREFIX=/usr or use this command
sed -i 's/\/usr\/local/\/usr/g' config.mkalso in that file you could use your custom cflags as for example adding -O3 or -Ofast optimization even -Og etc..
sudo make install
*enjoy Hyprland !!
