Now, as the root user: make install --without-rcdir: This switch disables installation of the bundled bootscript which is not compatible with BLFS. --with-gs-path=/usr/bin/gs: This switch defines the path to the GhostScript binary in case is not installed at build time. --with-pdftops-path=/usr/bin/gs: This switch defines the path to the GhostScript binary in case is not installed at build time. make check 2>&1 >testlog: the testsuite dumps a stream of bytes into the input buffer after it finishes. Sending the output to a file keeps the history usable, but some debug information will still appear on the screen. --with-test-path=VALUE : if you wish to run the tests, but you do not have the default /usr/share/fonts/dejavu/DejaVuSans.ttf use this switch to specify where DejaVuSans.ttf (or perhaps some other text TTF font - untested) is located.
