xslt-config(1)
β¨ xslt-config β bestie edition β¨
okay so real quick, the manual name for this one is xslt-config, and it lives in section 1 of the manual (the user commands one). and its whole personality? telling you stuff about the libxslt you've got installed. π
πΈ NAME πΈ
xslt-config β a script to get information about the installed version of libxslt
π SYNOPSIS π
xslt-config [--prefix[=DIR]] [--libs] [--cflags] [--version] [--help]
π¦ DESCRIPTION π¦
so basically, xslt-config is a tool that is used to determine the compile and linker flags that should be used to compile and link programs that use libxslt. it's giving "let me tell you what flags you need" energy, and honestly? it ate. π₯
π OPTIONS π
xslt-config accepts the following options, bestie, listen up:
--versionβ print the currently installed version of libxslt on the standard output. like a little vibe check for your install. π--libsβ print the linker flags that are necessary to link a libxslt program. these are the flags that go brrr at link time. β¨--cflagsβ print the compiler flags that are necessary to compile a libxslt program. compiler girlies, this one's for you. π--prefix=PREFIXβ if specified, use PREFIX instead of the installation prefix that libxslt was built with when computing the output for the--cflagsand--libsoptions. β οΈ and this is the important bit: this option must be specified before any--libsor--cflagsoptions. order matters, no cap. don't be out here putting it after and then acting surprised. π
also you clocked --help in the synopsis up there β it's in the lineup, keep it in mind. π«Ά
