Install slang by running the following commands:
./configure --prefix=/usr \ --sysconfdir=/etc \ --with-readline=gnu && make -j1 RPATH=
To test the results, issue: LC_ALL=C make check.
Now, as the root
user:
make install_doc_dir=/usr/share/doc/slang-2.3.3 \ SLSH_DOC_DIR=/usr/share/doc/slang-2.3.3/slsh \ RPATH= install
--with-readline=gnu
: This
parameter sets GNU Readline to be
used by the parser interface instead of the slang internal version.
RPATH=
: This overridden
make variable
prevents hard coding library search paths (rpath) into the binary
executable files and shared libraries. This package does not need
rpath for an installation into the standard location, and rpath may
sometimes cause unwanted effects or even security issues.
install_doc_dir=/usr/share/doc/slang-2.3.3
SLSH_DOC_DIR=/usr/share/doc/slang-2.3.3/slsh
: These
overridden make
variables ensure installing this package with a versioned
documentation installation directory.
