To test the results, issue: make check Install the package: make install The shared library needs to be moved to /lib, and as a result the .so file in /usr/lib will need to be recreated: mv -v /usr/lib/libattr.so.* /lib ln -sfv ../../lib/$(readlink /usr/lib/libattr.so) /usr/lib/libattr.so Contents of Attr Installed programs Installed library Installed directories attr, getfattr, and setfattr libattr.so /usr/include/attr and /usr/share/doc/attr-&attr-version; Short Descriptions attr Extends attributes on filesystem objects attr getfattr Gets the extended attributes of filesystem objects getfattr setfattr Sets the extended attributes of filesystem objects setfattr libattr Contains the library functions for manipulating extended attributes libattr
