| === Managing your own program hierarchy (optional) ===
| |
|
| |
| If you intend to compile for yourself a lot of utilities, you may use a specific "usr" hierachy into your own dir (Linux from scratch way). Go back to step 2, and configure octave as:
| |
|
| |
| ./configure --prefix=${HOME}/usr
| |
|
| |
| The other steps (make; make install) do not change. In order to use your own hierachy, you should set a few environment variables in your .profile:
| |
|
| |
| # set LD_LIBRARY_PATH if not set
| |
| (echo $LD_LIBRARY_PATH | grep -q lib) || export LD_LIBRARY_PATH="/usr/local/lib:$HOME/usr/lib:$HOME/usr/local/lib"
| |
|
| |
| # set PATH so it includes user's private bin if it exists
| |
| if [ -d "$HOME/bin" ] ; then
| |
| (echo $PATH | grep -q $HOME/usr/bin) || export PATH="$HOME/bin:$HOME/usr/bin:$HOME/usr/local/bin:$PATH"
| |
| fi
| |
|
| |
| # set MANPATH so it includes user's private bin if it exists
| |
| if [ -d "$HOME/usr/share/man" ] ; then
| |
| (echo $MANPATH | grep -q $HOME/usr/share/man) || export MANPATH="$HOME/usr/local/share/man:$HOME/usr/share/man:`manpath -q`"
| |
| fi
| |
|
| |
| if [ -d "$HOME/usr/share/info" ]; then
| |
| export INFOPATH="$INFOPATH:$HOME/usr/share/info"
| |
| fi
| |
|
| |
| if [ -d "$HOME/usr/lib/python" ]; then
| |
| (echo $PYTHONPATH | grep -q $HOME/usr/lib/python) || export PYTHONPATH="$HOME/usr/local/lib/python:$HOME/usr/lib/python"
| |
| fi
| |
|
| |
| if [ -d "$HOME/usr/lib/pkgconfig" ]; then
| |
| (echo $PKG_CONFIG_PATH | grep -q $HOME/usr/lib/pkgconfig) || export PKG_CONFIG_PATH="$HOME/usr/lib/pkgconfig"
| |
| fi
| |
|
| |
| This way, most ordinary commands like "man octave", "info octave", or launching octave itself, will first explore your own hierachy.
