<title>Installation of GNOME Session</title>
<para>
When running GNOME under <xref linkend="wayland"/>, environment settings
are not imported for the user using the system profile. The Wayland
developers are currently undecided on a standard method to provide system
environment settings for user sessions. To work around this limitation,
execute the following command to make
<command>gnome-session</command> use a login shell:
</para>
<screen><userinput>sed 's@/bin/sh@/bin/sh -l@' -i gnome-session/gnome-session.in</userinput></screen>
<!-- Not needed with 40.1.1
<para revision="systemd">
Adapt gnome-session to changes in systemd-247:
</para>
<screen revision="systemd"><userinput remap="pre">echo 'Slice=-.slice' >> data/gnome-session-restart-dbus.service.in</userinput></screen>
-->
<para revision="sysv">
Adapt meson.build so that gnome-session can build without systemd:
</para>
<screen revision="sysv"><userinput remap="pre">sed -i "/ systemd_dep/,+3d;/if enable_systemd/a \ systemd_userunitdir = '/tmp\'" meson.build</userinput></screen>
<para>
Install <application>GNOME Session</application> by
running the following commands:
</para>
<screen revision="sysv"><userinput>mkdir build &amp;&amp;
cd build &amp;&amp;
meson --prefix=/usr \
--buildtype=release \
-Dsystemd_journal=false \
.. &amp;&amp;
ninja</userinput></screen>
<screen revision="systemd"><userinput>mkdir build &amp;&amp;
cd build &amp;&amp;
meson --prefix=/usr --buildtype=release .. &amp;&amp;

<para>
This package does not come with a test suite.

<para>
Now, as the <systemitem class="username">root</systemitem> user:
</para>
<screen role="root"><userinput>ninja install</userinput></screen>
<!-- For some reason, there are I/O errors with the DTD @ freedesktop
that causes error messages to flood stdin. -->
<para>
Move the documentation to a versioned directory:
</para>
<screen role="root"><userinput>mv -v /usr/share/doc/gnome-session{,-&gnome-session-version;}</userinput></screen>
<para revision="sysv">
Now, as the <systemitem class="username">root</systemitem> user,
remove systemd units that are useless on SysV systems:
