<title>Installation of Psmisc</title>

|
|
<para>Prepare Psmisc for compilation:</para>
|

|
|
<para><screen><userinput>./configure --prefix=/usr --exec-prefix=/</userinput></screen></para>
|
|
|
|
<para>The <emphasis>--exec-prefix=/</emphasis> flag will cause the
|
|
programs to be installed in /bin rather than in /usr/bin. The programs
|
|
in this package are often used in bootscripts; they should be in the /bin
|
|
directory so they can be used in the event that the <filename
|
|
class="directory">/usr</filename> partition isn't mounted.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>Compile the package:</para>
|
|
|
|
<para><screen><userinput>make</userinput></screen></para>
|
|
|
|
<para>And install it:</para>

|

<para><screen><userinput>make install</userinput></screen></para>
|

|
|
<para>Psmisc's <userinput>pidof</userinput> program isn't installed by default.
|
|
Generally, this isn't a problem because we later install the Sysvinit package,
|
|
which provides a better <userinput>pidof</userinput> program.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>It's up to you to decide if you are going to use the Sysvinit package,
|
|
which provides a <userinput>pidof</userinput> program, or not. If you're not
|
|
going to use Sysvinit, you should complete this package's installation by
|
|
creating the <filename>/bin/pidof</filename> symlink:</para>
|
|
|
|
<para><screen><userinput>ln -s killall /bin/pidof</userinput></screen></para>
