21: .SH DESCRIPTION
22: .I configure
23: is a program used to prepare souce code to be built. It does this by
24: generating Makefiles and .gdbinit files, creating symlinks, recursing
25: in subdirectories, and some other miscellaneous file editing.
26:
27: .SH OPTIONS
28: .I configure
29: accepts the following options:
30:
31: .TP
32: .I \--target=TARGET
33: Requests that the sources be configured to target the
34: .I TARGET
35: machine. If no target is specified explicitly, the target is assumed
36: to be the same as the host.
37:
38: .TP
39: .I \--srcdir=DIR
40: tells configure to find the source in
41: .I DIR.
42: Object code is always built in the current directory,
43: .I `.'.
44:
45: .TP
46: .I \--rm
47: asks configure to remove a configuration rather than create one.
48:
49: .TP
50: .I \--site=SITE
51: asks configure to use any site-specific Makefile fragments for
52: .I SITE
53: when building Makefiles.
54:
55: .TP
56: .I \--prefix=DIR
57: sets the location in which to install files to
58: .I DIR.
59: The default is "/usr/local".
60:
61: .TP
62: .I \--exec_prefix=DIR
63: sets the root directory for host-dependent files to
64: .I DIR.
65: The default location is the value of
66: .I prefix.
67:
68: .TP
69: .I \--program_prefix=DIR
70: configures the source to install programs which have the same names as
71: common Unix programs, such as "make", in
72: .I DIR.
73: Also applies to programs which might be used for cross-compilation.
74:
75: .TP
76: .I \--tmpdir=DIR
77: sets the directory in which configure creates temporary files to
78: .I DIR.
79:
80: .TP
81: .I \--with-PACKAGE[=YES/NO]
82: sets a flag for the build to recognize that
83: .I PACKAGE
84: is explicitly present or not present. If
85: .I \=YES/NO
86: is nonexistent, the default is
87: .I YES.
88:
89: .TP
90: .I \--norecursion
91: asks that only the current directory be configured. Normally
92: .I configure
93: recurs on subdirectories.
94:
95: .TP
96: .I \-nfp
97: Notifies
98: .I configure
99: that all of the specified hosts have
100: .I no floating point
101: units.
102:
103: .TP
104: .I \-s
105: used internally by configure to supress status messages on
106: subdirectory recursions. Override with
107: .I \-v
108:
109: .TP
110: .I \-v
111: verbose output. Asks that configure print status lines for each
112: directory configured. Normally, only the status lines for the current
113: directory are printed.
114:
115: .TP
116: .I \--version
117: .I \-V
118: prints
119: .I configure
120: version number.
121:
122: .TP
123: .I \-help
124: displays a brief usage summary.
