Install xprintidle on Fedora 25+

xprintidleinstall.md

In order to use Safeeyes with the Smart Pause plugin you need install xprintidle. This process wasn't that simple for me so I thought about writing it down:

cd /tmp
git clone https://github.com/lucianposton/xprintidle
cd xprintidle
sudo dnf install libX11-devel libXScrnSaver-devel
sudo ln -s /usr/lib64/libXss.so.1.0.0 /usr/lib64/libXss.so
./configure
./make
sudo make install

That's all.

Enjoy folks!

On a completely new Fedora installation:

$ cat /etc/fedora-release 
Fedora release 38 (Thirty Eight)

• I also needed the @development-tools install package
• I did not need ln -s for libXss.so, aclocal or automake
• make, not ./make

This worked for me:

git clone https://github.com/lucianposton/xprintidle
cd xprintidle
sudo dnf @development-tools install libX11-devel libXScrnSaver-devel
./configure
make
sudo make install
