%general-entities; ]> FreeRDP The FreeRDP package contains libraries and utilities for utilizing the Remote Desktop Protocol. This includes tools to run an RDP server as well as connecting to a computer using RDP. This is primarily used for connecting to Microsoft Windows computers, but can also be used on Linux and macOS. &lfs121_checked; Package Information Download (HTTP): Download MD5 sum: &freerdp-md5sum; Download size: &freerdp-size; Estimated disk space required: &freerdp-buildsize; Estimated build time: &freerdp-time; FreeRDP Dependencies Required , , and Recommended , , , , , , , and Optional , , , , , , , , cJSON, GSM, ocl-icd, mbedTLS, openh264, pcsclite, SDL_ttf, soxr, and uriparser Install FreeRDP by running the following commands: mkdir build && cd build && cmake -D CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr \ -D CMAKE_SKIP_INSTALL_RPATH=ON \ -D CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release \ -D WITH_CAIRO=ON \ -D WITH_CLIENT_SDL=OFF \ -D WITH_DSP_FFMPEG=ON \ -D WITH_FFMPEG=ON \ -D WITH_PCSC=OFF \ -D WITH_SERVER=ON \ -D WITH_SERVER_CHANNELS=ON \ -D DOCBOOKXSL_DIR=/usr/share/xml/docbook/xsl-stylesheets-nons-&docbook-xsl-version; \ -W no-dev \ -G Ninja .. && ninja This package does not come with a test suite. Now, as the &root; user: ninja install -D DOCBOOKXSL_DIR=/usr/share/xml/docbook/xsl-stylesheets-nons-&docbook-xsl-version;: This parameter points CMake to the location of the Docbook XSL stylesheets, and is needed because BLFS does not use namespaced versions of the stylesheets. This is needed to create man pages. If you do not want manpages, pass -D WITH_MANPAGES=OFF to CMake instead. -D WITH_CAIRO=ON: This parameter uses Cairo for HighDPI and window resizing support. -D WITH_CLIENT_SDL=OFF: This parameter disables using SDL to draw the window when using the FreeRDP client. This is disabled because it depends on SDL_ttf. Remove this switch if you have the SDL_ttf package installed. -D WITH_FFMPEG=ON: This parameter enables support for using ffmpeg for the H.264 graphics rendering mode, which is required when connecting via RDP to Windows Server 2012 (or Windows 8) or later hosts. -D WITH_DSP_FFMPEG=ON: This parameter enables support for using ffmpeg for sound and microphone redirection. -D WITH_PCSC=OFF: This parameter disables support for SmartCards since BLFS does not have the required dependency for it. -D WITH_SERVER=ON: This parameter enables building the FreeRDP server components. Remove this parameter if you do not want to use the FreeRDP server. -D WITH_SERVER_CHANNELS=ON: This parameter builds additional plugins for the FreeRDP server. -D WITH_LAME=ON: Use this option if you wish to enable support for using LAME to provide MP3 Audio Codec support. -D WITH_FAAC=ON: Use this option if you wish to enable support for using FAAC to provide AAC Audio Codec support. -D WITH_FAAD2=ON: Use this option if you wish to enable support for using FAAD2 to provide AAC Audio Codec support. -D WITH_FDK_AAC=ON: Use this option if you wish to enable support for using fdk-aac to provide AAC Audio Codec support. -D WITH_MBEDTLS=ON: Use this option if you have the optional dependency mbedTLS installed and wish to use it as an alternative to OpenSSL for cryptography support. -D WITH_OPENCL=ON: Use this option if you have the optional dependency ocl-icd installed and wish to use OpenCL support. -D WITH_OPENH264=ON: Use this option if you have the optional dependency openh264 installed and wish to use it for H.264 support instead of ffmpeg. -D WITH_GSM=ON: Use this option if you have the optional dependency GSM installed and wish to use GSM as an audio codec. -D WITH_SOXR=ON: Use this option if you have the optional dependency soxr installed and wish to use it instead of ffmpeg for multimedia redirection.
