The meson build system is used to configure and compile bolt.
meson build # configure bolt, use build as buildir
ninja -C build # compile it
ninja -C build test # run the tests
NB: boltd comes with configuration files for dbus and PolicyKit that
need to be installed to the proper locations. It is probably a good
idea to manually specify them with the correct values for the current
distribution. This can be done by passing the corresponding options
to meson:
--sysconfdir=/etc
--localstatedir=/var
--sharedstatedir=/var/lib
