How install GNOME 40 (new features and animations)
This time we install GNOME 40 at Fedora Rawhide.
So, you must have installed Fedora Rawhide. If you install it on Virtual Machine - enable 3D acceleration for better experience.
First of all, build dependencies and install some needed packages:
~$ sudo dnf build-dep mutter gnome-shell
~$ sudo dnf install sassc
~$ sudo dnf install asciidoc
Next make directory for source code and move in it:
~$ mkdir demo
~$ cd demo/
Then clone Mutter from Gitlab:
~$ git clone https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter
Build and install Mutter:
~$ cd mutter
~$ meson _build --prefix=/usr
~$ sudo ninja -C /home/putHereYourUserName/Gnome40/mutter/_build
Than move to parent folder, clone gnome-shell, make checkout to change branch, build and install it:
~$ cd ../
~$ git clone https://gitlab.gnome.org/feaneron/gno...
~$ cd gnome-shell
~$ git checkout gbsneto/40-stuff
~$ meson _build --prefix=/usr
~$ sudo ninja install -C _build
That`s all! Log Out and Log In again to apply changes!
p.s. I recommend not update kernel, it`s may brake your system. For update components without updating kernel run "sudo dnf update -x kernel*".
