--- Comment #9 from Michel Alexandre Salim <[email protected]> ---
From the upstream developer:
"The cmake build only builds watchman + python.  The python bits are really
only included in there to enable building tools like watchman-make and
watchman-wait.  We plan to replace those with tools implemented in rust in the
not too distant future."

"The various other language bindings are distributed through their respective
primary distribution points; the nodejs library is published to npm, the
pywatchman bindings to pypi.  The ruby bindings are unmaintained; they were
added by a former FB employee to support their vim/ruby plugin.  The rust crate
is published to crates.io."

"There is a C++ client library in the repo but it doesn't get built or
installed for anything outside of hhvm."

"they (the language bindings) use a unix domain socket to talk to the server. 
There's a handshake they do to discover the socket; they shell out to watchman
get-sockname for that, but other than that those language bindings are self
contained and don't link to any external deps"

So I guess there are no shared libraries to be built
