SUMMARY
This article explains how to successfully run configure scripts.
MORE INFORMATION
When you run configure scripts, use the following command line (broken across lines for readability):
$ CONFIG_SHELL=$INTERIX_ROOT/bin/sh./configure --prefix=$INTERIX_ROOT/usr --bindir=$INTERIX_ROOT/bin --exec-prefix=$INTERIX_ROOT --sbindir=$INTERIX_ROOT/usr/local/bin --libdir=$INTERIX_ROOT/usr/lib --sysconfdir=$INTERIX_ROOT/etc --host=alpha-pc-opennt
- On an OPENNT 2.0 system, the assignment CPP='cc -E' should precede the command line.
- Substitute values for - -bindir - -sbindir, and - -host to pertain to your system. If you're running an Intel-based computer, use - -host=intel-pc-opennt.
Substitute that value for --sbindir if you created a directory.
$INTERIX_ROOT/usr/local/sbin
Note: The directories specified for these options need to exist before you run the script. Not all of the options are recognized by all configure scripts.- If you prefer not to type the command line, you may want to encapsulate it in a shell script or create a local config.site file for your system.
