Lura is a free and open-source image compression software that is designed to compress images without compromising their quality. In this tutorial, we will learn how to install Lura on EndeavourOS.
The first step is to ensure that the system is up to date by updating the package repository and installing the latest updates.
sudo pacman -Syu
Before we proceed with the Lura installation, we need to install its dependencies. Open the terminal and execute the following command.
sudo pacman -S clang cmake openjpeg2 boost-python
This will install LLVM/Clang, CMake, OpenJPEG, Boost and boost-python that Lura needs to run.
You should now download the latest version of Lura from the official website https://luraproject.org/. Once downloaded, extract the files to a directory of your choosing.
To build and install Lura, open the terminal and navigate to the directory where you extracted Lura in Step 3. Then execute the following commands one by one:
mkdir build
cd build
cmake ..
make
sudo make install
This will build and install Lura on your system.
To verify that Lura has been installed correctly, run the following command in the terminal.
lura --version
If Lura has been installed correctly, you should see the version number of Lura displayed in the terminal.
Lura is now installed on your EndeavourOS system. You can now use it to compress images without losing their quality. Good luck!
