If is installed but the Python 3 module named Markdown (not in BLFS) is not, one test named test_docwriter.py will fail. Now, as the root user: ninja install -Dgtk_doc=true: Build and install the documentation. -Dcairo=enabled: Use cairo for tests. -Ddoctool=enabled: Install g-ir-doc-tool and run related tests.
