Unstage/gitignore INSTALL since it's regenerated by autogen.sh
As noted by @marcelpaulo. I've had ugly diffs that fiddled with this file in the past, so it's good to see it gone. Closes #800.

Basic Installation
|
|
||||||
==================
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Briefly, the shell command `./configure && make && make install'
|
|
||||||
should configure, build, and install this package. The following
|
|
||||||
more-detailed instructions are generic; see the `README' file for
|
|
||||||
instructions specific to this package. Some packages provide this
|
|
||||||
`INSTALL' file but do not implement all of the features documented
|
|
||||||
below. The lack of an optional feature in a given package is not
|
|
||||||
necessarily a bug. More recommendations for GNU packages can be found
|
|
||||||
in *note Makefile Conventions: (standards)Makefile Conventions.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
The `configure' shell script attempts to guess correct values for
|
|
||||||
various system-dependent variables used during compilation. It uses
|
|
||||||
those values to create a `Makefile' in each directory of the package.
|
|
||||||
It may also create one or more `.h' files containing system-dependent
|
|
||||||
definitions. Finally, it creates a shell script `config.status' that
|
|
||||||
you can run in the future to recreate the current configuration, and a
|
|
||||||
file `config.log' containing compiler output (useful mainly for
|
|
||||||
debugging `configure').
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
It can also use an optional file (typically called `config.cache'
|
|
||||||
and enabled with `--cache-file=config.cache' or simply `-C') that saves
|
|
||||||
the results of its tests to speed up reconfiguring. Caching is
|
|
||||||
disabled by default to prevent problems with accidental use of stale
|
|
||||||
cache files.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
If you need to do unusual things to compile the package, please try
|
|
||||||
to figure out how `configure' could check whether to do them, and mail
|
|
||||||
diffs or instructions to the address given in the `README' so they can
|
|
||||||
be considered for the next release. If you are using the cache, and at
|
|
||||||
some point `config.cache' contains results you don't want to keep, you
|
|
||||||
may remove or edit it.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
The file `configure.ac' (or `configure.in') is used to create
|
|
||||||
`configure' by a program called `autoconf'. You need `configure.ac' if
|
|
||||||
you want to change it or regenerate `configure' using a newer version
|
|
||||||
of `autoconf'.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
The simplest way to compile this package is:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
1. `cd' to the directory containing the package's source code and type
|
|
||||||
`./configure' to configure the package for your system.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Running `configure' might take a while. While running, it prints
|
|
||||||
some messages telling which features it is checking for.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
2. Type `make' to compile the package.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
3. Optionally, type `make check' to run any self-tests that come with
|
|
||||||
the package, generally using the just-built uninstalled binaries.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
4. Type `make install' to install the programs and any data files and
|
|
||||||
documentation. When installing into a prefix owned by root, it is
|
|
||||||
recommended that the package be configured and built as a regular
|
|
||||||
user, and only the `make install' phase executed with root
|
|
||||||
privileges.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
5. Optionally, type `make installcheck' to repeat any self-tests, but
|
|
||||||
this time using the binaries in their final installed location.
|
|
||||||
This target does not install anything. Running this target as a
|
|
||||||
regular user, particularly if the prior `make install' required
|
|
||||||
root privileges, verifies that the installation completed
|
|
||||||
correctly.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
6. You can remove the program binaries and object files from the
|
|
||||||
source code directory by typing `make clean'. To also remove the
|
|
||||||
files that `configure' created (so you can compile the package for
|
|
||||||
a different kind of computer), type `make distclean'. There is
|
|
||||||
also a `make maintainer-clean' target, but that is intended mainly
|
|
||||||
for the package's developers. If you use it, you may have to get
|
|
||||||
all sorts of other programs in order to regenerate files that came
|
|
||||||
with the distribution.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
7. Often, you can also type `make uninstall' to remove the installed
|
|
||||||
files again. In practice, not all packages have tested that
|
|
||||||
uninstallation works correctly, even though it is required by the
|
|
||||||
GNU Coding Standards.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
8. Some packages, particularly those that use Automake, provide `make
|
|
||||||
distcheck', which can by used by developers to test that all other
|
|
||||||
targets like `make install' and `make uninstall' work correctly.
|
|
||||||
This target is generally not run by end users.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Compilers and Options
|
|
||||||
=====================
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Some systems require unusual options for compilation or linking that
|
|
||||||
the `configure' script does not know about. Run `./configure --help'
|
|
||||||
for details on some of the pertinent environment variables.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
You can give `configure' initial values for configuration parameters
|
|
||||||
by setting variables in the command line or in the environment. Here
|
|
||||||
is an example:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
./configure CC=c99 CFLAGS=-g LIBS=-lposix
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
*Note Defining Variables::, for more details.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Compiling For Multiple Architectures
|
|
||||||
====================================
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
You can compile the package for more than one kind of computer at the
|
|
||||||
same time, by placing the object files for each architecture in their
|
|
||||||
own directory. To do this, you can use GNU `make'. `cd' to the
|
|
||||||
directory where you want the object files and executables to go and run
|
|
||||||
the `configure' script. `configure' automatically checks for the
|
|
||||||
source code in the directory that `configure' is in and in `..'. This
|
|
||||||
is known as a "VPATH" build.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
With a non-GNU `make', it is safer to compile the package for one
|
|
||||||
architecture at a time in the source code directory. After you have
|
|
||||||
installed the package for one architecture, use `make distclean' before
|
|
||||||
reconfiguring for another architecture.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
On MacOS X 10.5 and later systems, you can create libraries and
|
|
||||||
executables that work on multiple system types--known as "fat" or
|
|
||||||
"universal" binaries--by specifying multiple `-arch' options to the
|
|
||||||
compiler but only a single `-arch' option to the preprocessor. Like
|
|
||||||
this:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
./configure CC="gcc -arch i386 -arch x86_64 -arch ppc -arch ppc64" \
|
|
||||||
CXX="g++ -arch i386 -arch x86_64 -arch ppc -arch ppc64" \
|
|
||||||
CPP="gcc -E" CXXCPP="g++ -E"
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
This is not guaranteed to produce working output in all cases, you
|
|
||||||
may have to build one architecture at a time and combine the results
|
|
||||||
using the `lipo' tool if you have problems.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Installation Names
|
|
||||||
==================
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
By default, `make install' installs the package's commands under
|
|
||||||
`/usr/local/bin', include files under `/usr/local/include', etc. You
|
|
||||||
can specify an installation prefix other than `/usr/local' by giving
|
|
||||||
`configure' the option `--prefix=PREFIX', where PREFIX must be an
|
|
||||||
absolute file name.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
You can specify separate installation prefixes for
|
|
||||||
architecture-specific files and architecture-independent files. If you
|
|
||||||
pass the option `--exec-prefix=PREFIX' to `configure', the package uses
|
|
||||||
PREFIX as the prefix for installing programs and libraries.
|
|
||||||
Documentation and other data files still use the regular prefix.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
In addition, if you use an unusual directory layout you can give
|
|
||||||
options like `--bindir=DIR' to specify different values for particular
|
|
||||||
kinds of files. Run `configure --help' for a list of the directories
|
|
||||||
you can set and what kinds of files go in them. In general, the
|
|
||||||
default for these options is expressed in terms of `${prefix}', so that
|
|
||||||
specifying just `--prefix' will affect all of the other directory
|
|
||||||
specifications that were not explicitly provided.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
The most portable way to affect installation locations is to pass the
|
|
||||||
correct locations to `configure'; however, many packages provide one or
|
|
||||||
both of the following shortcuts of passing variable assignments to the
|
|
||||||
`make install' command line to change installation locations without
|
|
||||||
having to reconfigure or recompile.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
The first method involves providing an override variable for each
|
|
||||||
affected directory. For example, `make install
|
|
||||||
prefix=/alternate/directory' will choose an alternate location for all
|
|
||||||
directory configuration variables that were expressed in terms of
|
|
||||||
`${prefix}'. Any directories that were specified during `configure',
|
|
||||||
but not in terms of `${prefix}', must each be overridden at install
|
|
||||||
time for the entire installation to be relocated. The approach of
|
|
||||||
makefile variable overrides for each directory variable is required by
|
|
||||||
the GNU Coding Standards, and ideally causes no recompilation.
|
|
||||||
However, some platforms have known limitations with the semantics of
|
|
||||||
shared libraries that end up requiring recompilation when using this
|
|
||||||
method, particularly noticeable in packages that use GNU Libtool.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
The second method involves providing the `DESTDIR' variable. For
|
|
||||||
example, `make install DESTDIR=/alternate/directory' will prepend
|
|
||||||
`/alternate/directory' before all installation names. The approach of
|
|
||||||
`DESTDIR' overrides is not required by the GNU Coding Standards, and
|
|
||||||
does not work on platforms that have drive letters. On the other hand,
|
|
||||||
it does better at avoiding recompilation issues, and works well even
|
|
||||||
when some directory options were not specified in terms of `${prefix}'
|
|
||||||
at `configure' time.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Optional Features
|
|
||||||
=================
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
If the package supports it, you can cause programs to be installed
|
|
||||||
with an extra prefix or suffix on their names by giving `configure' the
|
|
||||||
option `--program-prefix=PREFIX' or `--program-suffix=SUFFIX'.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Some packages pay attention to `--enable-FEATURE' options to
|
|
||||||
`configure', where FEATURE indicates an optional part of the package.
|
|
||||||
They may also pay attention to `--with-PACKAGE' options, where PACKAGE
|
|
||||||
is something like `gnu-as' or `x' (for the X Window System). The
|
|
||||||
`README' should mention any `--enable-' and `--with-' options that the
|
|
||||||
package recognizes.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
For packages that use the X Window System, `configure' can usually
|
|
||||||
find the X include and library files automatically, but if it doesn't,
|
|
||||||
you can use the `configure' options `--x-includes=DIR' and
|
|
||||||
`--x-libraries=DIR' to specify their locations.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Some packages offer the ability to configure how verbose the
|
|
||||||
execution of `make' will be. For these packages, running `./configure
|
|
||||||
--enable-silent-rules' sets the default to minimal output, which can be
|
|
||||||
overridden with `make V=1'; while running `./configure
|
|
||||||
--disable-silent-rules' sets the default to verbose, which can be
|
|
||||||
overridden with `make V=0'.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Particular systems
|
|
||||||
==================
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
On HP-UX, the default C compiler is not ANSI C compatible. If GNU
|
|
||||||
CC is not installed, it is recommended to use the following options in
|
|
||||||
order to use an ANSI C compiler:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
./configure CC="cc -Ae -D_XOPEN_SOURCE=500"
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
and if that doesn't work, install pre-built binaries of GCC for HP-UX.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
HP-UX `make' updates targets which have the same time stamps as
|
|
||||||
their prerequisites, which makes it generally unusable when shipped
|
|
||||||
generated files such as `configure' are involved. Use GNU `make'
|
|
||||||
instead.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
On OSF/1 a.k.a. Tru64, some versions of the default C compiler cannot
|
|
||||||
parse its `<wchar.h>' header file. The option `-nodtk' can be used as
|
|
||||||
a workaround. If GNU CC is not installed, it is therefore recommended
|
|
||||||
to try
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
./configure CC="cc"
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
and if that doesn't work, try
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
./configure CC="cc -nodtk"
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
On Solaris, don't put `/usr/ucb' early in your `PATH'. This
|
|
||||||
directory contains several dysfunctional programs; working variants of
|
|
||||||
these programs are available in `/usr/bin'. So, if you need `/usr/ucb'
|
|
||||||
in your `PATH', put it _after_ `/usr/bin'.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
On Haiku, software installed for all users goes in `/boot/common',
|
|
||||||
not `/usr/local'. It is recommended to use the following options:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
./configure --prefix=/boot/common
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Specifying the System Type
|
|
||||||
==========================
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
There may be some features `configure' cannot figure out
|
|
||||||
automatically, but needs to determine by the type of machine the package
|
|
||||||
will run on. Usually, assuming the package is built to be run on the
|
|
||||||
_same_ architectures, `configure' can figure that out, but if it prints
|
|
||||||
a message saying it cannot guess the machine type, give it the
|
|
||||||
`--build=TYPE' option. TYPE can either be a short name for the system
|
|
||||||
type, such as `sun4', or a canonical name which has the form:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
CPU-COMPANY-SYSTEM
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
where SYSTEM can have one of these forms:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
OS
|
|
||||||
KERNEL-OS
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
See the file `config.sub' for the possible values of each field. If
|
|
||||||
`config.sub' isn't included in this package, then this package doesn't
|
|
||||||
need to know the machine type.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
If you are _building_ compiler tools for cross-compiling, you should
|
|
||||||
use the option `--target=TYPE' to select the type of system they will
|
|
||||||
produce code for.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
If you want to _use_ a cross compiler, that generates code for a
|
|
||||||
platform different from the build platform, you should specify the
|
|
||||||
"host" platform (i.e., that on which the generated programs will
|
|
||||||
eventually be run) with `--host=TYPE'.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Sharing Defaults
|
|
||||||
================
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
If you want to set default values for `configure' scripts to share,
|
|
||||||
you can create a site shell script called `config.site' that gives
|
|
||||||
default values for variables like `CC', `cache_file', and `prefix'.
|
|
||||||
`configure' looks for `PREFIX/share/config.site' if it exists, then
|
|
||||||
`PREFIX/etc/config.site' if it exists. Or, you can set the
|
|
||||||
`CONFIG_SITE' environment variable to the location of the site script.
|
|
||||||
A warning: not all `configure' scripts look for a site script.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Defining Variables
|
|
||||||
==================
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Variables not defined in a site shell script can be set in the
|
|
||||||
environment passed to `configure'. However, some packages may run
|
|
||||||
configure again during the build, and the customized values of these
|
|
||||||
variables may be lost. In order to avoid this problem, you should set
|
|
||||||
them in the `configure' command line, using `VAR=value'. For example:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
./configure CC=/usr/local2/bin/gcc
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
causes the specified `gcc' to be used as the C compiler (unless it is
|
|
||||||
overridden in the site shell script).
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Unfortunately, this technique does not work for `CONFIG_SHELL' due to
|
|
||||||
an Autoconf limitation. Until the limitation is lifted, you can use
|
|
||||||
this workaround:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
CONFIG_SHELL=/bin/bash ./configure CONFIG_SHELL=/bin/bash
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
`configure' Invocation
|
|
||||||
======================
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
`configure' recognizes the following options to control how it
|
|
||||||
operates.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
`--help'
|
|
||||||
`-h'
|
|
||||||
Print a summary of all of the options to `configure', and exit.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
`--help=short'
|
|
||||||
`--help=recursive'
|
|
||||||
Print a summary of the options unique to this package's
|
|
||||||
`configure', and exit. The `short' variant lists options used
|
|
||||||
only in the top level, while the `recursive' variant lists options
|
|
||||||
also present in any nested packages.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
`--version'
|
|
||||||
`-V'
|
|
||||||
Print the version of Autoconf used to generate the `configure'
|
|
||||||
script, and exit.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
`--cache-file=FILE'
|
|
||||||
Enable the cache: use and save the results of the tests in FILE,
|
|
||||||
traditionally `config.cache'. FILE defaults to `/dev/null' to
|
|
||||||
disable caching.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
`--config-cache'
|
|
||||||
`-C'
|
|
||||||
Alias for `--cache-file=config.cache'.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
`--quiet'
|
|
||||||
`--silent'
|
|
||||||
`-q'
|
|
||||||
Do not print messages saying which checks are being made. To
|
|
||||||
suppress all normal output, redirect it to `/dev/null' (any error
|
|
||||||
messages will still be shown).
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
`--srcdir=DIR'
|
|
||||||
Look for the package's source code in directory DIR. Usually
|
|
||||||
`configure' can determine that directory automatically.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
`--prefix=DIR'
|
|
||||||
Use DIR as the installation prefix. *note Installation Names::
|
|
||||||
for more details, including other options available for fine-tuning
|
|
||||||
the installation locations.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
`--no-create'
|
|
||||||
`-n'
|
|
||||||
Run the configure checks, but stop before creating any output
|
|
||||||
files.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
`configure' also accepts some other, not widely useful, options. Run
|
|
||||||
`configure --help' for more details.
