|
---|
| 9 |
|
---|
| 10 | <args-to-configure> can be blank if your needs are simple. If not, read
|
---|
| 11 | configure --help. Example: use --prefix=/usr to install in /usr instead
|
---|
| 12 | of /usr/local. If you have extreme needs and 50 media isn't enough,
|
---|
| 13 | configure --with-maximum-noof-media=<big-number>. To make a statically
|
---|
| 14 | linked mondorestore (not tested), configure --enable-static-mr.

| 18 | These are generic installation instructions.
|
---|
| 19 |
|
---|
| 20 | The `configure' shell script attempts to guess correct values for
|
---|
| 21 | various system-dependent variables used during compilation. It uses
|
---|
| 22 | those values to create a `Makefile' in each directory of the package.
|
---|
| 23 | It may also create one or more `.h' files containing system-dependent
|
---|
| 24 | definitions. Finally, it creates a shell script `config.status' that
|
---|
| 25 | you can run in the future to recreate the current configuration, a file
|
---|
| 26 | `config.cache' that saves the results of its tests to speed up
|
---|
| 27 | reconfiguring, and a file `config.log' containing compiler output
|
---|
| 28 | (useful mainly for debugging `configure').
|
---|
| 29 |
|
---|
| 30 | If you need to do unusual things to compile the package, please try
|
---|
| 31 | to figure out how `configure' could check whether to do them, and mail
|
---|
| 32 | diffs or instructions to the address given in the `README' so they can
|
---|
| 33 | be considered for the next release. If at some point `config.cache'
|
---|
| 34 | contains results you don't want to keep, you may remove or edit it.
|
---|
| 35 |
|
---|
| 36 | The file `configure.in' is used to create `configure' by a program
|
---|
| 37 | called `autoconf'. You only need `configure.in' if you want to change
|
---|
| 38 | it or regenerate `configure' using a newer version of `autoconf'.
|
---|
| 39 |
|
---|
| 40 | The simplest way to compile this package is:
|
---|
| 41 |
|
---|
| 42 | 1. `cd' to the directory containing the package's source code and type
|
---|
| 43 | `./configure' to configure the package for your system. If you're
|
---|
| 44 | using `csh' on an old version of System V, you might need to type
|
---|
| 45 | `sh ./configure' instead to prevent `csh' from trying to execute
|
---|
| 46 | `configure' itself.
|
---|
| 47 |
|
---|
| 48 | Running `configure' takes a while. While running, it prints some
|
---|
| 49 | messages telling which features it is checking for.
|
---|
| 50 |
|
---|
| 51 | 2. Type `make' to compile the package.
|
---|
| 52 |
|
---|
| 53 | 3. Type `make install' to install the programs and any data files and
|
---|
| 54 | documentation.
|
---|
| 55 |
|
---|
| 56 | 4. You can remove the program binaries and object files from the
|
---|
| 57 | source code directory by typing `make clean'.
|
---|
| 58 |
|
---|
| 59 | Compilers and Options
|
---|
| 60 | =====================
|
---|
| 61 |
|
---|
| 62 | Some systems require unusual options for compilation or linking that
|
---|
| 63 | the `configure' script does not know about. You can give `configure'
|
---|
| 64 | initial values for variables by setting them in the environment. Using
|
---|
| 65 | a Bourne-compatible shell, you can do that on the command line like
|
---|
| 66 | this:
|
---|
| 67 | CC=c89 CFLAGS=-O2 LIBS=-lposix ./configure
|
---|
| 68 |
|
---|
| 69 | Or on systems that have the `env' program, you can do it like this:
|
---|
| 70 | env CPPFLAGS=-I/usr/local/include LDFLAGS=-s ./configure
|
---|
| 71 |
|
---|
| 72 | Compiling For Multiple Architectures
|
---|
| 73 | ====================================
|
---|
| 74 |
|
---|
| 75 | You can compile the package for more than one kind of computer at the
|
---|
| 76 | same time, by placing the object files for each architecture in their
|
---|
| 77 | own directory. To do this, you must use a version of `make' that
|
---|
| 78 | supports the `VPATH' variable, such as GNU `make'. `cd' to the
|
---|
| 79 | directory where you want the object files and executables to go and run
|
---|
| 80 | the `configure' script. `configure' automatically checks for the
|
---|
| 81 | source code in the directory that `configure' is in and in `..'.
|
---|
| 82 |
|
---|
| 83 | If you have to use a `make' that does not supports the `VPATH'
|
---|
| 84 | variable, you have to compile the package for one architecture at a time
|
---|
| 85 | in the source code directory. After you have installed the package for
|
---|
| 86 | one architecture, use `make distclean' before reconfiguring for another
|
---|
| 87 | architecture.
|
---|
| 88 |
|
---|
| 89 | Installation Names
|
---|
| 90 | ==================
|
---|
| 91 |
|
---|
| 92 | By default, `make install' will install the package's files in
|
---|
| 93 | `/usr/local/bin', `/usr/local/man', etc. You can specify an
|
---|
| 94 | installation prefix other than `/usr/local' by giving `configure' the
|
---|
| 95 | option `--prefix=PATH'.
|
---|
| 96 |
|
---|
| 97 | You can specify separate installation prefixes for
|
---|
| 98 | architecture-specific files and architecture-independent files. If you
|
---|
| 99 | give `configure' the option `--exec-prefix=PATH', the package will use
|
---|
| 100 | PATH as the prefix for installing programs and libraries.
|
---|
| 101 | Documentation and other data files will still use the regular prefix.
|
---|
| 102 |
|
---|
| 103 | If the package supports it, you can cause programs to be installed
|
---|
| 104 | with an extra prefix or suffix on their names by giving `configure' the
|
---|
| 105 | option `--program-prefix=PREFIX' or `--program-suffix=SUFFIX'.
|
---|
| 106 |
|
---|
| 107 | Optional Features
|
---|
| 108 | =================
|
---|
| 109 |
|
---|
| 110 | Some packages pay attention to `--enable-FEATURE' options to
|
---|
| 111 | `configure', where FEATURE indicates an optional part of the package.
|
---|
| 112 | They may also pay attention to `--with-PACKAGE' options, where PACKAGE
|
---|
| 113 | is something like `gnu-as' or `x' (for the X Window System). The
|
---|
| 114 | `README' should mention any `--enable-' and `--with-' options that the
|
---|
| 115 | package recognizes.
|
---|
| 116 |
|
---|
| 117 | For packages that use the X Window System, `configure' can usually
|
---|
| 118 | find the X include and library files automatically, but if it doesn't,
|
---|
| 119 | you can use the `configure' options `--x-includes=DIR' and
|
---|
| 120 | `--x-libraries=DIR' to specify their locations.
|
---|
| 121 |
|
---|
| 122 | Specifying the System Type
|
---|
| 123 | ==========================
|
---|
| 124 |
|
---|
| 125 | There may be some features `configure' can not figure out
|
---|
| 126 | automatically, but needs to determine by the type of host the package
|
---|
| 127 | will run on. Usually `configure' can figure that out, but if it prints
|
---|
| 128 | a message saying it can not guess the host type, give it the
|
---|
| 129 | `--host=TYPE' option. TYPE can either be a short name for the system
|
---|
| 130 | type, such as `sun4', or a canonical name with three fields:
|
---|
| 131 | CPU-COMPANY-SYSTEM
|
---|
| 132 |
|
---|
| 133 | See the file `config.sub' for the possible values of each field. If
|
---|
| 134 | `config.sub' isn't included in this package, then this package doesn't
|
---|
| 135 | need to know the host type.
|
---|
| 136 |
|
---|
| 137 | If you are building compiler tools for cross-compiling, you can also
|
---|
| 138 | use the `--target=TYPE' option to select the type of system they will
|
---|
| 139 | produce code for and the `--build=TYPE' option to select the type of
|
---|
| 140 | system on which you are compiling the package.
|
---|
| 141 |
|
---|
| 142 | Sharing Defaults
|
---|
| 143 | ================
|
---|
| 144 |
|
---|
| 145 | If you want to set default values for `configure' scripts to share,
|
---|
| 146 | you can create a site shell script called `config.site' that gives
|
---|
| 147 | default values for variables like `CC', `cache_file', and `prefix'.
|
---|
| 148 | `configure' looks for `PREFIX/share/config.site' if it exists, then
|
---|
| 149 | `PREFIX/etc/config.site' if it exists. Or, you can set the
|
---|
| 150 | `CONFIG_SITE' environment variable to the location of the site script.
|
---|
| 151 | A warning: not all `configure' scripts look for a site script.
|
---|
| 152 |
|
---|
| 153 | Operation Controls
|
---|
| 154 | ==================
|
---|
| 155 |
|
---|
| 156 | `configure' recognizes the following options to control how it
|
---|
| 157 | operates.
|
---|
| 158 |
|
---|
| 159 | `--cache-file=FILE'
|
---|
| 160 | Use and save the results of the tests in FILE instead of
|
---|
| 161 | `./config.cache'. Set FILE to `/dev/null' to disable caching, for
|
---|
| 162 | debugging `configure'.
|
---|
| 163 |
|
---|
| 164 | `--help'
|
---|
| 165 | Print a summary of the options to `configure', and exit.
|
---|
| 166 |
|
---|
| 167 | `--quiet'
|
---|
| 168 | `--silent'
|
---|
| 169 | `-q'
|
---|
| 170 | Do not print messages saying which checks are being made.
|
---|
| 171 |
|
---|
| 172 | `--srcdir=DIR'
|
---|
| 173 | Look for the package's source code in directory DIR. Usually
|
---|
| 174 | `configure' can determine that directory automatically.
|
---|
| 175 |
|
---|
| 176 | `--version'
|
---|
| 177 | Print the version of Autoconf used to generate the `configure'
|
---|
| 178 | script, and exit.
|
---|
| 179 |
|
---|
| 180 | `configure' also accepts some other, not widely useful, options.
|
---|
