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.
