1 | Basic Installation | ||
2 | ================== | ||
3 | |||
4 | These are generic installation instructions. | ||
5 | |||
6 | The `configure' shell script attempts to guess correct values for | ||
7 | various system-dependent variables used during compilation. It uses | ||
8 | those values to create a `Makefile' in each directory of the package. | ||
9 | It may also create one or more `.h' files containing system-dependent | ||
10 | definitions. Finally, it creates a shell script `config.status' that | ||
11 | you can run in the future to recreate the current configuration, a file | ||
12 | `config.cache' that saves the results of its tests to speed up | ||
13 | reconfiguring, and a file `config.log' containing compiler output | ||
14 | (useful mainly for debugging `configure'). | ||
15 | |||
16 | If you need to do unusual things to compile the package, please try | ||
17 | to figure out how `configure' could check whether to do them, and mail | ||
18 | diffs or instructions to the address given in the `README' so they can | ||
19 | be considered for the next release. If at some point `config.cache' | ||
20 | contains results you don't want to keep, you may remove or edit it. | ||
21 | |||
22 | The file `configure.in' is used to create `configure' by a program | ||
23 | called `autoconf'. You only need `configure.in' if you want to change | ||
24 | it or regenerate `configure' using a newer version of `autoconf'. | ||
25 | |||
26 | The simplest way to compile this package is: | ||
27 | |||
28 | 1. `cd' to the directory containing the package's source code and type | ||
29 | `./configure' to configure the package for your system. If you're | ||
30 | using `csh' on an old version of System V, you might need to type | ||
31 | `sh ./configure' instead to prevent `csh' from trying to execute | ||
32 | `configure' itself. | ||
33 | |||
34 | Running `configure' takes awhile. While running, it prints some | ||
35 | messages telling which features it is checking for. | ||
36 | |||
37 | 2. Type `make' to compile the package. | ||
38 | |||
39 | 3. Optionally, type `make check' to run any self-tests that come with | ||
40 | the package. | ||
41 | |||
42 | 4. Type `make install' to install the programs and any data files and | ||
43 | documentation. | ||
44 | |||
45 | 5. You can remove the program binaries and object files from the | ||
46 | source code directory by typing `make clean'. To also remove the | ||
47 | files that `configure' created (so you can compile the package for | ||
48 | a different kind of computer), type `make distclean'. There is | ||
49 | also a `make maintainer-clean' target, but that is intended mainly | ||
50 | for the package's developers. If you use it, you may have to get | ||
51 | all sorts of other programs in order to regenerate files that came | ||
52 | with the distribution. | ||
53 | |||
54 | Compilers and Options | ||
55 | ===================== | ||
56 | |||
57 | Some systems require unusual options for compilation or linking that | ||
58 | the `configure' script does not know about. You can give `configure' | ||
59 | initial values for variables by setting them in the environment. Using | ||
60 | a Bourne-compatible shell, you can do that on the command line like | ||
61 | this: | ||
62 | CC=c89 CFLAGS=-O2 LIBS=-lposix ./configure | ||
63 | |||
64 | Or on systems that have the `env' program, you can do it like this: | ||
65 | env CPPFLAGS=-I/usr/local/include LDFLAGS=-s ./configure | ||
66 | |||
67 | Compiling For Multiple Architectures | ||
68 | ==================================== | ||
69 | |||
70 | You can compile the package for more than one kind of computer at the | ||
71 | same time, by placing the object files for each architecture in their | ||
72 | own directory. To do this, you must use a version of `make' that | ||
73 | supports the `VPATH' variable, such as GNU `make'. `cd' to the | ||
74 | directory where you want the object files and executables to go and run | ||
75 | the `configure' script. `configure' automatically checks for the | ||
76 | source code in the directory that `configure' is in and in `..'. | ||
77 | |||
78 | If you have to use a `make' that does not supports the `VPATH' | ||
79 | variable, you have to compile the package for one architecture at a time | ||
80 | in the source code directory. After you have installed the package for | ||
81 | one architecture, use `make distclean' before reconfiguring for another | ||
82 | architecture. | ||
83 | |||
84 | Installation Names | ||
85 | ================== | ||
86 | |||
87 | By default, `make install' will install the package's files in | ||
88 | `/usr/local/bin', `/usr/local/man', etc. You can specify an | ||
89 | installation prefix other than `/usr/local' by giving `configure' the | ||
90 | option `--prefix=PATH'. | ||
91 | |||
92 | You can specify separate installation prefixes for | ||
93 | architecture-specific files and architecture-independent files. If you | ||
94 | give `configure' the option `--exec-prefix=PATH', the package will use | ||
95 | PATH as the prefix for installing programs and libraries. | ||
96 | Documentation and other data files will still use the regular prefix. | ||
97 | |||
98 | In addition, if you use an unusual directory layout you can give | ||
99 | options like `--bindir=PATH' to specify different values for particular | ||
100 | kinds of files. Run `configure --help' for a list of the directories | ||
101 | you can set and what kinds of files go in them. | ||
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. To | ||
171 | suppress all normal output, redirect it to `/dev/null' (any error | ||
172 | messages will still be shown). | ||
173 | |||
174 | `--srcdir=DIR' | ||
175 | Look for the package's source code in directory DIR. Usually | ||
176 | `configure' can determine that directory automatically. | ||
177 | |||
178 | `--version' | ||
179 | Print the version of Autoconf used to generate the `configure' | ||
180 | script, and exit. | ||
181 | |||
182 | `configure' also accepts some other, not widely useful, options. | ||
