Now, as the root user: make install Command Explanations --sysconfdir=/etc: This parameter puts the pktloc and classid files in /etc/libnl which is their conventional location and recommended if you are building this package to enable NetworkManager on a desktop. If you are building this package for other reasons, you might prefer to use --sysconfdir=/var/lib so that these files, which are not expected to be edited, are placed in /var/lib/nl. The default for a build with prefix /usr is, of course, to create a directory /usr/etc which is not desirable. : This switch prevents the static libraries being installed.
