Using kittens without completely installing kitty #746

Luflosi commented 6 years ago

Is it possible to use a kitten without fully installing kitty and all of its dependancies? I'd like to use the icat kitten on a headless linux machine without installing seemingly unnecessary dependencies like harfbuzz.

kovidgoyal commented 6 years ago

Use the pre-built linux binaries, they come with harfbuzz included.

Luflosi commented 6 years ago

Well, the headless linux machine is a Raspberry Pi and there are no pre-built binaries for arm.

kovidgoyal commented 6 years ago

In that case I'm afraid you cannot avoid installing harfbuzz.

Ok, thanks anyways.
