Explain symlink vs mv.
<syntaxhighlight lang=bash>
xbps-install -Syu binutils-devel cmake freefont-ttf SDL2-devel SDL2_ttf-devel spice-protocol fontconfig-devel libX11-devel nettle-devel
</syntaxhighlight>
 
===== Gentoo =====
First set up the necessary USE flags:
<syntaxhighlight lang=bash>
echo "media-libs/libsdl2 gles" | sudo tee --append /etc/portage/package.use/libsdl2 >/dev/null
echo "media-libs/nettle gmp" | sudo tee --append /etc/portage/package.use/nettle >/dev/null
</syntaxhighlight>
Then fetch the packages:
<syntaxhighlight lang=bash>
emerge sys-devel/binutils media-libs/libsdl2 media-libs/sdl2-ttf dev-libs/nettle media-libs/fontconfig dev-util/cmake app-emulation/spice-protocol media-fonts/freefonts media-libs/glu
</syntaxhighlight>
This list can also be placed into a setfile in /etc/portage/sets/ so that they can be updated with
<syntaxhighlight lang=bash>
emerge @setfile
</syntaxhighlight>
Should this all go well you should be left with the file '''looking-glass-client'''. Before you run the client you will first need to configure either Libvirt or Qemu (whichever you prefer) and then set up the Windows side service.
 
You can call the client from the build directory; or, you can make it callable generally by adding the directory to your path or issuing
<syntaxhighlight lang=bash>
ln -s $(pwd)/looking-glass-client /bin/
</syntaxhighlight>
from the build directory.
 
Symlinks are preferable to moving the binary; it's inadvisable to have unmanaged packages hanging around your system.
