Hi there

Can someone give me some pointers on how to use Ninja correctly?

I compiled libdrm and I wanted it to place the files in the correct location instead of having to this manually.

Some advice/suggestions would be welcome

example with the package libdrm_2.4.114.tar.xz

tar -xf  /root/libdrm_2.4.114.tar.xz

cd /root/libdrm-2.4.114

meson setup -Dprefix=/usr --libdir=/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu build

.

and to keep it in a specific folder.

DESTDIR=/root/libdrm-2.4.114_amd64 ninja -C build install
