howto compile and install this package
|
||
|
|
======================================
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
really short install instructions
|
||
|
|
---------------------------------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
$ make
|
||
|
|
$ su -c "make install"
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
the more detailed version
|
||
|
|
-------------------------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Make sure you use GNU make. The file name "GNUmakefile" isn't a joke,
|
||
|
|
this package really requires GNU make.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
As first step make will do some config checks on your system and write
|
||
|
|
the results to Make.config. If you want to have a look at Make.config
|
||
|
|
before the actual build starts you can run this step separately using
|
||
|
|
"make config".
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The Makefiles use the usual GNU-ish Makefile conventions for variable
|
||
|
|
names and default values, i.e. prefix=/usr/local, ...
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The values for some frequently adapted variables are initialized from
|
||
|
|
the enviroment. Thus you can change the defaults simply by setting
|
||
|
|
environment variables:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
$ prefix="/usr"
|
||
|
|
$ CFLAGS="-O3 -mcpu=i686"
|
||
|
|
$ export prefix CFLAGS
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Almost any variable can be overridden on the make command line. It is
|
||
|
|
often used this way to install into some buildroot for packaging ...
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
$ su -c "make DESTDIR=/tmp/buildroot install"
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
... but it works for most other variables equally well. There are
|
||
|
|
some exceptions through, it usually does _not_ work for CFLAGS for
|
||
|
|
example.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Try "make verbose=yes" if you want to see the complete command lines
|
||
|
|
executed by make instead of the short messages (for trouble shooting,
|
||
|
|
because you like this way, for whatever reason ...). This also makes
|
||
|
|
the config checks performed by "make config" more verbose.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
If you don't trust my Makefiles you can run "make -n install" to see
|
||
|
|
what "make install" would do on your system. It will produce
|
||
|
|
human-readable output (unlike automake ...).

Have fun,
