#
# build.sh — build & install lxpanel with the Erisian/Unix-time Digital Clock.
#
# Target: Gentoo Linux (out-of-tree source build). The same script works on any
# autotools-based distro; only the emerge convenience list is Gentoo-specific.
#
# The build:
#   1. verifies build dependencies (pkg-config; optionally `emerge`s them),
#   2. downloads lxpanel at the EXACT commit the patch was generated against,
#   3. applies erisian-time.patch (idempotent),
#   4. runs autogen.sh + configure + make, and (optionally) `make install`.
#
# Usage:
#   ./build.sh                      # build & install to /usr (default)
#   ./build.sh --deps               # also `emerge` the required ebuilds first
#   ./build.sh --prefix=/opt/lxpanel
#   ./build.sh --no-install         # build only, do not install
#   ./build.sh --clean              # re-download the source fresh
#
