This location doesn't comply 21 with the FHS, which never even mentions a directory called 22 <filename>libexec</filename>. The patch makes it possible to pass a 23 <emphasis>--libexecdir</emphasis> switch to the configure script, so that we 24 can use a more appropriate location for the <userinput>grcat</userinput> and 25 <userinput>pwcat</userinput> binaries: 26 <filename>/usr/bin</filename>.</para></listitem> 27 28 <listitem><para>Gawk's default data directory is 29 <filename>$prefix/share/awk</filename>. But package-specific 30 directories should be named using the package name and version number 31 (for example: <filename>gawk-7.7.2.</filename>) and not simply the package 32 name, as there may be different versions of a package installed on the system. 33 The patch changes the name of the data directory to the correct 34 <filename>$prefix/share/gawk-&gawk-version;</filename>.</para></listitem> 35 36 <listitem><para>The patch also ensures that this data directory, including its 37 contents, is removed on a <emphasis>make uninstall</emphasis>.</para></listitem> 38 </itemizedlist> 39 40 <screen><userinput>patch -Np1 -i ../&gawk-patch;</userinput></screen> 41 42 <para>Now prepare Gawk for compilation:</para> 43 44 <screen><userinput>./configure --prefix=/usr --libexecdir=/usr/bin</userinput></screen> 45 46 <para>Compile the package:</para> 47 48 <screen><userinput>make</userinput></screen> 49 50 <para>This package has a test suite available which can perform a number of 51 checks to ensure it built correctly. Should you choose to run it, the 52 following command will do so:</para> 53 54 <screen><userinput>make check</userinput></screen> 55 56 <para>And install the package:</para> 57 58 <screen><userinput>make install</userinput></screen> 59 60 </sect2> 11 61 12 62 </sect1>
