<note><para>Zlib is known to build its shared library incorrectly if CFLAGS is

|
specified in the environment. If you are using your own CFLAGS variable, be

sure to add the <emphasis>-fPIC</emphasis> directive to your CFLAGS for the
|
|
duration of the below <command>configure</command> command, then remove it
|
|
afterwards.</para></note>

|
|
|
<para>Prepare Zlib for compilation:</para>
|
|
|
|
<screen><userinput>./configure --prefix=/usr --shared</userinput></screen>
|
|
|
|
<para>Compile the package:</para>
|
|
|
|
<screen><userinput>make</userinput></screen>
|
|
|
|
<para>To test the results, issue:
|
|
<userinput>make check</userinput>.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>Install the shared library:</para>
|
|
|
|
<screen><userinput>make install</userinput></screen>
|
|
|
|
<para>Now also build the non-shared (static) library:</para>
|
|
<screen><userinput>make clean
|
|
./configure --prefix=/usr
|
|
make</userinput></screen>
|
|
|
|
<para>To again test the results, issue:
|
|
<userinput>make check</userinput>.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>Install the static library:</para>
|
|
|
|
<screen><userinput>make install</userinput></screen>
|
|
|
|
<para>And fix the permissions on the static library:</para>
|
|
|
|
<screen><userinput>chmod 644 /usr/lib/libz.a</userinput></screen>
|
|
|
|
<para>It is good policy and common practice to place important libraries into
|
|
the <filename class="directory">/lib</filename> directory. This matters most
|
|
in scenarios where <filename class="directory">/usr</filename> is on a
|
|
separate partition. Essentially, the run-time components of any libraries that
|
|
are used by programs in <filename class="directory">/bin</filename> or
|
|
<filename class="directory">/sbin</filename> should reside in
|
|
<filename class="directory">/lib</filename> so that they are on the root
|
|
partition and available in the event of
|
|
<filename class="directory">/usr</filename> being inaccessible.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>For the above reason we move the run-time components of the shared Zlib
|
|
into <filename class="directory">/lib</filename>:</para>
|
|
|
|
<screen><userinput>mv /usr/lib/libz.so.* /lib</userinput></screen>
|
|
|
|
<para>Now we need to fix the <filename>/usr/lib/libz.so</filename> symlink
|
|
because we just moved the file it points to:</para>
|
|
|
|
<screen><userinput>ln -sf ../../lib/libz.so.1 /usr/lib/libz.so</userinput></screen>
