Unpack the archive if you have not done so already: + + tar -xf lzd[version].tar.lz +or + lzip -cd lzd[version].tar.lz | tar -xf - + +This creates the directory ./lzd[version] containing the source code +extracted from the archive. + +2. Change to lzd directory and run configure. + (Try 'configure --help' for usage instructions). + + cd lzd[version] + ./configure + +3. Run make. + + make + +4. Optionally, type 'make check' to run the tests that come with lzd. + +5. Type 'make install' to install the program and any data files and + documentation. + + +Another way +----------- +You can also compile lzd into a separate directory. +To do this, you must use a version of 'make' that supports the variable +'VPATH', such as 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 '.', in '..', and +in the directory that 'configure' is in. + +'configure' recognizes the option '--srcdir=DIR' to control where to look +for the source code. Usually 'configure' can determine that directory +automatically. + +After running 'configure', you can run 'make' and 'make install' as +explained above. + + +Copyright (C) 2013-2022 Antonio Diaz Diaz. + +This file is free documentation: you have unlimited permission to copy, +distribute, and modify it. |
