The cmark package contains a CommonMark parsing and rendering utility and library in C. BLFS provides the Python version, which the cmark script from it will be moved safely out of the way in this installation.
Install cmark by running the following commands:
mkdir build &&
cd build &&
cmake -D CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr \
-D CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release \
-D CMAKE_SKIP_INSTALL_RPATH=ON \
-D BUILD_SHARED_LIBS=ON \
-W no-dev -G Ninja .. &&
ninja
As the root user, move the Python
version of cmark out
of the way if it's installed:
if which cmark &> /dev/null; then
grep -qF python3 $(which cmark) &&
mv -v $(which cmark){,-py3}
fi
Now, as the root user:
ninja install
-D
CMAKE_SKIP_INSTALL_RPATH=ON: This switch makes
cmake remove
hardcoded library search paths (rpath) when installing a binary
executable file or a shared library. This package does not need
rpath once it's installed into the standard location, and rpath may
sometimes cause unwanted effects or even security issues.
-D BUILD_SHARED_LIBS=ON:
This parameter builds the cmark library as dynamic instead of
static.
