As the title says, this PR removes the need to have
gengetopt
installed, when compiling Janus: we usedgengetopt
as a helper application to generate our command line options and related parser (which would be generated automatically by the Makefile), but since Glib comes with a set of utilities usingGOptionEntry
, I thought I'd change the code to use that instead.Nothing should change from a user perspective, since the command line options that existed before remain the same, and are activated the same way as well. Of course, some feedback to be sure I'm not breaking something in the process is more than welcome.
