Description

tilix (a terminal emulator implementation written in the D programming language) needs gtk-d.
gtk-d DOES build successfully on s390x using gdmd (the DMD compiler that's become part of the GCC) when using the
current master sources from github along with the GNUMakefile. BUT: the meson build system's built-in dependency mgr
does not find (or look?) in the /usr/local file system hierarchy (which is the default location for make install).

IMHO, there are two possible ways to solve this:

  • either provide a config for pkgconfig (and submit it upstream via a pull request)
  • or have gtk-d installed to /usr (overriding the default install prefix)

Still, a third (probably preferred) way would be to use dub as it is the standard package manager for the D (dlang) ecosystem (but that currently does not build due to a failing assertion).
