Package Information Download (HTTP): Download (FTP): Download MD5 sum: &flac-md5sum; Download size: &flac-size; Estimated disk space required: &flac-buildsize; Estimated build time: &flac-time; FLAC Dependencies Optional , , , , and Valgrind Install FLAC by running the following commands: LIBS=-lm ./configure --prefix=/usr && make Now, as the root user: make install If you passed the --enable-exhaustive-tests and --enable-valgrind-testing parameters to configure and then run the make check tests, it will take a very long time (about 150 SBUs) and use about 375 MB of disk space. LIBS=-lm ./configure --prefix=/usr: libFLAC uses a function from the math library but is not linked with libm. Passing the environment variable to configure satisfies this dependency.
