7Basic Installation
8==================
9
10   These are generic installation instructions.
11
12   The `configure' shell script attempts to guess correct values for
13various system-dependent variables used during compilation.  It uses
14those values to create a `Makefile' in each directory of the package.
15It may also create one or more `.h' files containing system-dependent
16definitions.  Finally, it creates a shell script `config.status' that
17you can run in the future to recreate the current configuration, and a
18file `config.log' containing compiler output (useful mainly for
19debugging `configure').
20
21   It can also use an optional file (typically called `config.cache'
22and enabled with `--cache-file=config.cache' or simply `-C') that saves
23the results of its tests to speed up reconfiguring.  (Caching is
24disabled by default to prevent problems with accidental use of stale
25cache files.)
26
27   If you need to do unusual things to compile the package, please try
28to figure out how `configure' could check whether to do them, and mail
29diffs or instructions to the address given in the `README' so they can
30be considered for the next release.  If you are using the cache, and at
31some point `config.cache' contains results you don't want to keep, you
32may remove or edit it.
33
34   The file `configure.ac' (or `configure.in') is used to create
35`configure' by a program called `autoconf'.  You only need
36`configure.ac' if you want to change it or regenerate `configure' using
37a newer version of `autoconf'.
38
39The simplest way to compile this package is:
40
41  1. `cd' to the directory containing the package's source code and type
42     `./configure' to configure the package for your system.  If you're
43     using `csh' on an old version of System V, you might need to type
44     `sh ./configure' instead to prevent `csh' from trying to execute
45     `configure' itself.
46
47     Running `configure' takes awhile.  While running, it prints some
48     messages telling which features it is checking for.
49
50  2. Type `make' to compile the package.
51
52  3. Optionally, type `make check' to run any self-tests that come with
53     the package.
54
55  4. Type `make install' to install the programs and any data files and
56     documentation.
57
58  5. You can remove the program binaries and object files from the
59     source code directory by typing `make clean'.  To also remove the
60     files that `configure' created (so you can compile the package for
61     a different kind of computer), type `make distclean'.  There is
62     also a `make maintainer-clean' target, but that is intended mainly
63     for the package's developers.  If you use it, you may have to get
64     all sorts of other programs in order to regenerate files that came
65     with the distribution.
66
67Compilers and Options
68=====================
69
70   Some systems require unusual options for compilation or linking that
71the `configure' script does not know about.  Run `./configure --help'
72for details on some of the pertinent environment variables.
73
74   You can give `configure' initial values for configuration parameters
75by setting variables in the command line or in the environment.  Here
76is an example:
77
78     ./configure CC=c89 CFLAGS=-O2 LIBS=-lposix
79
80   *Note Defining Variables::, for more details.
81
82Compiling For Multiple Architectures
83====================================
84
85   You can compile the package for more than one kind of computer at the
86same time, by placing the object files for each architecture in their
87own directory.  To do this, you must use a version of `make' that
88supports the `VPATH' variable, such as GNU `make'.  `cd' to the
89directory where you want the object files and executables to go and run
90the `configure' script.  `configure' automatically checks for the
91source code in the directory that `configure' is in and in `..'.
92
93   If you have to use a `make' that does not support the `VPATH'
94variable, you have to compile the package for one architecture at a
95time in the source code directory.  After you have installed the
96package for one architecture, use `make distclean' before reconfiguring
97for another architecture.
98
99Installation Names
100==================
101
102   By default, `make install' will install the package's files in
103`/usr/local/bin', `/usr/local/man', etc.  You can specify an
104installation prefix other than `/usr/local' by giving `configure' the
105option `--prefix=PATH'.
106
107   You can specify separate installation prefixes for
108architecture-specific files and architecture-independent files.  If you
109give `configure' the option `--exec-prefix=PATH', the package will use
110PATH as the prefix for installing programs and libraries.
111Documentation and other data files will still use the regular prefix.
112
113   In addition, if you use an unusual directory layout you can give
114options like `--bindir=PATH' to specify different values for particular
115kinds of files.  Run `configure --help' for a list of the directories
116you can set and what kinds of files go in them.
117
118   If the package supports it, you can cause programs to be installed
119with an extra prefix or suffix on their names by giving `configure' the
120option `--program-prefix=PREFIX' or `--program-suffix=SUFFIX'.
121
122Optional Features
123=================
124
125   Some packages pay attention to `--enable-FEATURE' options to
126`configure', where FEATURE indicates an optional part of the package.
127They may also pay attention to `--with-PACKAGE' options, where PACKAGE
128is something like `gnu-as' or `x' (for the X Window System).  The
129`README' should mention any `--enable-' and `--with-' options that the
130package recognizes.
131
132   For packages that use the X Window System, `configure' can usually
133find the X include and library files automatically, but if it doesn't,
134you can use the `configure' options `--x-includes=DIR' and
135`--x-libraries=DIR' to specify their locations.
136
137Specifying the System Type
138==========================
139
140   There may be some features `configure' cannot figure out
141automatically, but needs to determine by the type of machine the package
142will run on.  Usually, assuming the package is built to be run on the
143_same_ architectures, `configure' can figure that out, but if it prints
144a message saying it cannot guess the machine type, give it the
145`--build=TYPE' option.  TYPE can either be a short name for the system
146type, such as `sun4', or a canonical name which has the form:
147
148     CPU-COMPANY-SYSTEM
149
150where SYSTEM can have one of these forms:
151
152     OS KERNEL-OS
153
154   See the file `config.sub' for the possible values of each field.  If
155`config.sub' isn't included in this package, then this package doesn't
156need to know the machine type.
157
158   If you are _building_ compiler tools for cross-compiling, you should
159use the `--target=TYPE' option to select the type of system they will
160produce code for.
161
162   If you want to _use_ a cross compiler, that generates code for a
163platform different from the build platform, you should specify the
164"host" platform (i.e., that on which the generated programs will
165eventually be run) with `--host=TYPE'.
166
167Sharing Defaults
168================
169
170   If you want to set default values for `configure' scripts to share,
171you can create a site shell script called `config.site' that gives
172default values for variables like `CC', `cache_file', and `prefix'.
173`configure' looks for `PREFIX/share/config.site' if it exists, then
174`PREFIX/etc/config.site' if it exists.  Or, you can set the
175`CONFIG_SITE' environment variable to the location of the site script.
176A warning: not all `configure' scripts look for a site script.
177
178Defining Variables
179==================
180
181   Variables not defined in a site shell script can be set in the
182environment passed to `configure'.  However, some packages may run
183configure again during the build, and the customized values of these
184variables may be lost.  In order to avoid this problem, you should set
185them in the `configure' command line, using `VAR=value'.  For example:
186
187     ./configure CC=/usr/local2/bin/gcc
188
189will cause the specified gcc to be used as the C compiler (unless it is
190overridden in the site shell script).
191
192`configure' Invocation
193======================
194
195   `configure' recognizes the following options to control how it
196operates.
197
198`--help'
199`-h'
200     Print a summary of the options to `configure', and exit.
201
202`--version'
203`-V'
204     Print the version of Autoconf used to generate the `configure'
205     script, and exit.
206
207`--cache-file=FILE'
208     Enable the cache: use and save the results of the tests in FILE,
209     traditionally `config.cache'.  FILE defaults to `/dev/null' to
210     disable caching.
211
212`--config-cache'
213`-C'
214     Alias for `--cache-file=config.cache'.
215
216`--quiet'
217`--silent'
218`-q'
219     Do not print messages saying which checks are being made.  To
220     suppress all normal output, redirect it to `/dev/null' (any error
221     messages will still be shown).
222
223`--srcdir=DIR'
224     Look for the package's source code in directory DIR.  Usually
225     `configure' can determine that directory automatically.
226
227`configure' also accepts some other, not widely useful, options.  Run
228`configure --help' for more details.
