Update install.md with installation instructions #72

Closed WavyEbuilder closed 6 months ago

WavyEbuilder commented 1 year ago

Hi!

I recently pushed rofi-wayland to the guru, and this is a simple pr to add install instructions for it :) I know I am supposed to contribute to next, but as this has 0 changes to the codebase, and it works for the current version of rofi, I thought it would make more sense to open a pr for the wayland branch.

If anything, this fork should remove the references to using autotools, unless someone intends to make the Wayland port compilable with the autotools (issue #32, but with autotools being abandoned by projects left and right, it makes one wonder if it's worth the effort). It also lists requirements for Wayland support under a separate header, but it should also list the packages that are only necessary for X support under a separate header.

I just tried building with autotools and it won't even build (cc1: fatal error: ./source/xcb.c: No such file or directory), so even if you want to use autotools to build it without Wayland support, you're SOL.
