# This will build and install all required supporting libraries # and the GIMP. Although all of these libraries and programs use X, we are # using /usr rather than /usr/X11R6 as the --prefix when building them. # Since at first glance most people will think this is the wrong place for # them, here's the rationale behind this decision: # # 1. That's where the other distributions are placing it, so it seems like # an adhoc standard exception to the usual rule of no X11 binaries in # /usr/bin. I figure they've done this because of reason (2). # # 2. That's the only way to get the .m4 files for autoconf to install into # /usr/share/aclocal, where autoconf expects them to be. I've tried moving # them manually from /usr/X11R6/share/aclocal to /usr/share/aclocal without # apparent ill effects, but this leaves a potential trap for the admin who # may try to rebuild newer versions of glib or gtk+ and doesn't know they # need to move these files after the 'make install'. Duplicate .m4 files # (or worse, not exactly duplicate) *will* confuse autoconf and cause them # all sorts of random problems. # # So, although it's a bit icky to install this X11 stuff into /usr/lib and # /usr/bin, it seems like the best option. --pjv sh aalib-1.2.build ldconfig sh glib-1.2.2.build ldconfig sh gtk+-1.2.2.build ldconfig sh mpeg_lib.build ldconfig sh gimp-1.0.4.build ldconfig sh gimp-data-extras.build
