for texinfo to be compiled properly). Added --with-curses to bash's configure again like previously done. This now functions as a test to make sure the libraries are setup properly (ie; that symlink created and such) git-svn-id: http://svn.linuxfromscratch.org/LFS/trunk/BOOK@1181 4aa44e1e-78dd-0310-a6d2-fbcd4c07a689

<title>Installation of Bash</title>
|
|
|
|
<para>Before you attempt to install Bash, you have to check to make sure
|
|
your distribution has the <filename>/usr/lib/libcurses.a</filename> and
|
|
<filename>/usr/lib/libncurses.a</filename> files. If both of the files
|
|
are missing, you have to install the ncurses development package. This
|
|
package is often call something like <emphasis>ncurses-dev</emphasis>.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>If this package is already installed, or you just did it, check
|
|
for the two files again. Often the <filename>libcurses.a</filename> file
|
|
is (still) missing. If so, then create <filename>libcurses.a</filename>
|
|
as a symlink by running the following commands:</para>
|
|
|
|
<para><screen><userinput>cd /usr/lib &&</userinput>
|
|
<userinput>ln -s libncurses.a libcurses.a</userinput></screen></para>
|
|
|
|
<para>Now we can continue. Install Bash by running the following
|
|
commands:</para>
|
|
|
|
<para><screen><userinput>./configure --enable-static-link --prefix=$LFS/usr \</userinput>
|
|
<userinput> --bindir=$LFS/bin --with-curses &&</userinput>
|
|
<userinput>make &&</userinput>
|
|
<userinput>make install &&</userinput>
|
|
<userinput>cd $LFS/bin &&</userinput>
|
|
<userinput>ln -sf bash sh</userinput></screen></para>
|
|
|
|
<para>If the make install phase ends with something along the lines of</para>
|
|
|
|
<blockquote><screen>install-info: unknown option `--dir-file=/mnt/lfs/usr/info/dir'
|
|

|
<para>then that means that you are probably using Debian, and that you have an
|
|
old version of the texinfo package. This error is not severe by any means: the
|
|
info pages will be installed when we recompile bash dynamically in
|
|
chapter 6, so you can ignore it. You do, however, have to run the last
|
|
two commands manually (the <userinput>cd $LFS/bin</userinput> and
|
|
<userinput>ln -sf bash sh</userinput> commands) because they won't be
|
|
executed when the error occurs.</para>
