Unpack the archive if you have not done so already: + + lzip -cd lzip[version].tar.lz | tar -xf - +or + gzip -cd lzip[version].tar.gz | tar -xf - + +This creates the directory ./lzip[version] containing the source from +the main archive. + +2. Change to lzip directory and run configure. + (Try 'configure --help' for usage instructions). + + cd lzip[version] + ./configure + +3. Run make. + + make + +4. Optionally, type 'make check' to run the tests that come with lzip. + +5. Type 'make install' to install the program and any data files and + documentation. + + You can install only the program, the info manual or the man page + typing 'make install-bin', 'make install-info' or 'make install-man' + respectively. + + +Another way +----------- +You can also compile lzip into a separate directory. To do this, you +must use a version of 'make' that supports the 'VPATH' variable, 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 sources. Usually 'configure' can determine that directory +automatically. + +After running 'configure', you can run 'make' and 'make install' as +explained above. + + +Copyright (C) 2008, 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012, 2013 Antonio Diaz Diaz. + +This file is free documentation: you have unlimited permission to copy, +distribute and modify it. -- cgit v1.2.3
