<title>Installation of Vim</title>
|
|
|
|
<para>This package requires its patch to be applied before you can
|
|
install it. Make sure it's unpacked before running the installation
|
|
commands.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>If you not wish to install Vim, build instructions for
|
|
alternative editors are available at
|
|
<ulink url="&blfs-root;view/cvs/postlfs/editors.html"/>.
|
|
Currently, there are instructions for Emacs, nano, and joe.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>Install Vim by running the following commands:</para>
|
|
|
|
<para><screen><userinput>patch -Np1 -i ../vim-&vim-patch-version;.patch &&
|
|
./configure --prefix=/usr &&
|
|
make CPPFLAGS=-DSYS_VIMRC_FILE=\\\"/etc/vimrc\\\" &&
|
|
make install &&
|
|
ln -s vim /usr/bin/vi</userinput></screen></para>
|
|
|
|
<para>If you plan to install the X Window system on your LFS
|
|
system, you might want to re-compile Vim after you have installed X. Vim
|
|
comes with a nice GUI version of the editor which requires X and a few
|
|
other libraries to be installed. For more information read the Vim
|
|
documentation.</para>

<title>FHS compliance notes</title>
|
|
|
|
<para>The FHS says that editors like vim should use /var/lib/<editor>
|
|
for their temporary state files, like temporary save files for example.
|
|
If you wish vim to conform to the FHS, you should use this command set
|
|
instead of the one presented above:</para>
|
|
|
|
<para><screen><userinput>patch -Np1 -i ../vim-&vim-patch-version;.patch &&
|
|
./configure --prefix=/usr --localstatedir=/var/lib/vim &&
|
|
make CPPFLAGS=-DSYS_VIMRC_FILE=\\\"/etc/vimrc\\\" &&
|
|
make install &&
|
|
ln -s vim /usr/bin/vi</userinput></screen></para>
