15       Basic Installation
16       ==================
17
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, and a
26       file `config.log' containing compiler output (useful mainly for
27       debugging `configure').
28
29          It can also use an optional file (typically called `config.cache'
30       and enabled with `--cache-file=config.cache' or simply `-C') that saves
31       the results of its tests to speed up reconfiguring.  (Caching is
32       disabled by default to prevent problems with accidental use of stale
33       cache files.)
34
35          If you need to do unusual things to compile the package, please try
36       to figure out how `configure' could check whether to do them, and mail
37       diffs or instructions to the address given in the `README' so they can
38       be considered for the next release.  If you are using the cache, and at
39       some point `config.cache' contains results you don't want to keep, you
40       may remove or edit it.
41
42          The file `configure.ac' (or `configure.in') is used to create
43       `configure' by a program called `autoconf'.  You only need
44       `configure.ac' if you want to change it or regenerate `configure' using
45       a newer version of `autoconf'.
46
47       The simplest way to compile this package is:
48
49         1. `cd' to the directory containing the package's source code and type
50            `./configure' to configure the package for your system.  If you're
51            using `csh' on an old version of System V, you might need to type
52            `sh ./configure' instead to prevent `csh' from trying to execute
53            `configure' itself.
54
55            Running `configure' takes awhile.  While running, it prints some
56            messages telling which features it is checking for.
57
58         2. Type `make' to compile the package.
59
60         3. Optionally, type `make check' to run any self-tests that come with
61            the package.
62
63         4. Type `make install' to install the programs and any data files and
64            documentation.
65
66         5. You can remove the program binaries and object files from the
67            source code directory by typing `make clean'.  To also remove the
68            files that `configure' created (so you can compile the package for
69            a different kind of computer), type `make distclean'.  There is
70            also a `make maintainer-clean' target, but that is intended mainly
71            for the package's developers.  If you use it, you may have to get
72            all sorts of other programs in order to regenerate files that came
73            with the distribution.
74
75       Compilers and Options
76       =====================
77
78          Some systems require unusual options for compilation or linking that
79       the `configure' script does not know about.  Run `./configure --help'
80       for details on some of the pertinent environment variables.
81
82          You can give `configure' initial values for configuration parameters
83       by setting variables in the command line or in the environment.  Here
84       is an example:
85
86            ./configure CC=c89 CFLAGS=-O2 LIBS=-lposix
87
88          *Note Defining Variables::, for more details.
89
90       Compiling For Multiple Architectures
91       ====================================
92
93          You can compile the package for more than one kind of computer at the
94       same time, by placing the object files for each architecture in their
95       own directory.  To do this, you must use a version of `make' that
96       supports the `VPATH' variable, such as GNU `make'.  `cd' to the
97       directory where you want the object files and executables to go and run
98       the `configure' script.  `configure' automatically checks for the
99       source code in the directory that `configure' is in and in `..'.
100
101          If you have to use a `make' that does not support the `VPATH'
102       variable, you have to compile the package for one architecture at a
103       time in the source code directory.  After you have installed the
104       package for one architecture, use `make distclean' before reconfiguring
105       for another architecture.
106
107       Installation Names
108       ==================
109
110          By default, `make install' will install the package's files in
111       `/usr/local/bin', `/usr/local/man', etc.  You can specify an
112       installation prefix other than `/usr/local' by giving `configure' the
113       option `--prefix=PATH'.
114
115          You can specify separate installation prefixes for
116       architecture-specific files and architecture-independent files.  If you
117       give `configure' the option `--exec-prefix=PATH', the package will use
118       PATH as the prefix for installing programs and libraries.
119       Documentation and other data files will still use the regular prefix.
120
121          In addition, if you use an unusual directory layout you can give
122       options like `--bindir=PATH' to specify different values for particular
123       kinds of files.  Run `configure --help' for a list of the directories
124       you can set and what kinds of files go in them.
125
126          If the package supports it, you can cause programs to be installed
127       with an extra prefix or suffix on their names by giving `configure' the
128       option `--program-prefix=PREFIX' or `--program-suffix=SUFFIX'.
129
130       Optional Features
131       =================
132
133          Some packages pay attention to `--enable-FEATURE' options to
134       `configure', where FEATURE indicates an optional part of the package.
135       They may also pay attention to `--with-PACKAGE' options, where PACKAGE
136       is something like `gnu-as' or `x' (for the X Window System).  The
137       `README' should mention any `--enable-' and `--with-' options that the
138       package recognizes.
139
140          For packages that use the X Window System, `configure' can usually
141       find the X include and library files automatically, but if it doesn't,
142       you can use the `configure' options `--x-includes=DIR' and
143       `--x-libraries=DIR' to specify their locations.
144
145       Specifying the System Type
146       ==========================
147
148          There may be some features `configure' cannot figure out
149       automatically, but needs to determine by the type of machine the package
150       will run on.  Usually, assuming the package is built to be run on the
151       _same_ architectures, `configure' can figure that out, but if it prints
152       a message saying it cannot guess the machine type, give it the
153       `--build=TYPE' option.  TYPE can either be a short name for the system
154       type, such as `sun4', or a canonical name which has the form:
155
156            CPU-COMPANY-SYSTEM
157
158       where SYSTEM can have one of these forms:
159
160            OS KERNEL-OS
161
162          See the file `config.sub' for the possible values of each field.  If
163       `config.sub' isn't included in this package, then this package doesn't
164       need to know the machine type.
165
166          If you are _building_ compiler tools for cross-compiling, you should
167       use the `--target=TYPE' option to select the type of system they will
168       produce code for.
169
170          If you want to _use_ a cross compiler, that generates code for a
171       platform different from the build platform, you should specify the
172       "host" platform (i.e., that on which the generated programs will
173       eventually be run) with `--host=TYPE'.
174
175       Sharing Defaults
176       ================
177
178          If you want to set default values for `configure' scripts to share,
179       you can create a site shell script called `config.site' that gives
180       default values for variables like `CC', `cache_file', and `prefix'.
181       `configure' looks for `PREFIX/share/config.site' if it exists, then
182       `PREFIX/etc/config.site' if it exists.  Or, you can set the
183       `CONFIG_SITE' environment variable to the location of the site script.
184       A warning: not all `configure' scripts look for a site script.
185
186       Defining Variables
187       ==================
188
189          Variables not defined in a site shell script can be set in the
190       environment passed to `configure'.  However, some packages may run
191       configure again during the build, and the customized values of these
192       variables may be lost.  In order to avoid this problem, you should set
193       them in the `configure' command line, using `VAR=value'.  For example:
194
195            ./configure CC=/usr/local2/bin/gcc
196
197       will cause the specified gcc to be used as the C compiler (unless it is
198       overridden in the site shell script).
199
200       `configure' Invocation
201       ======================
202
203          `configure' recognizes the following options to control how it
204       operates.
205
206       `--help'
207       `-h'
208            Print a summary of the options to `configure', and exit.
209
210       `--version'
211       `-V'
212            Print the version of Autoconf used to generate the `configure'
213            script, and exit.
214
215       `--cache-file=FILE'
216            Enable the cache: use and save the results of the tests in FILE,
217            traditionally `config.cache'.  FILE defaults to `/dev/null' to
218            disable caching.
219
220       `--config-cache'
221       `-C'
222            Alias for `--cache-file=config.cache'.
223
224       `--quiet'
225       `--silent'
226       `-q'
227            Do not print messages saying which checks are being made.  To
228            suppress all normal output, redirect it to `/dev/null' (any error
229            messages will still be shown).
230
231       `--srcdir=DIR'
232            Look for the package's source code in directory DIR.  Usually
233            `configure' can determine that directory automatically.
234
235       `configure' also accepts some other, not widely useful, options.  Run
236       `configure --help' for more details.
