Hi there,
As for each package you should decompress the package, enter decompressed
folder, compile&install and finally remove decompressed folder, and also while
you do not learn any new thing by doing these each time, so I would like to
share my automation solution which does these just by getting a partial name of
the package:
To create the main .sh file, issue following commands while you're logged in by
chroot (section 6 of LFS-7.1) and also you're in '$LFS/sources' directory:
cat > t.sh << EOF
if [ "$1" == "" ]; then
echo 'USAGE: t.bash [name]'
return
fi
FNAME=$(ls $1* | grep tar.xz)
if [ "$FNAME" == "" ]; then
FNAME=$(ls $1* | grep tar.gz)
if [ "$FNAME" == "" ]; then
FNAME=$(ls $1* | grep tar.bz2)
if [ "$FNAME" == "" ]; then
echo 'match not found!'
return
else
TARPARAM='-jxf'
EXT='.tar.bz2'
fi
else
TARPARAM='-zxf'
EXT='.tar.gz'
fi
else
TARPARAM='-Jxf'
EXT='.tar.xz'
fi
DIR=$(echo $FNAME | sed "s/$EXT//g")
echo `rm -fR $DIR`
echo `ls $1*`
echo `tar $TARPARAM $FNAME`
rm -vfR ut.sh
echo -e 'cd ..\necho `rm -fR '$DIR'`\necho `ls '$1'*`\nrm -vfR ut.sh' >> ut.sh
chmod 777 ut.sh
cd $DIR
EOF
chmod 777 t.sh
Now, to use automation, act like following:
Issue following command to decompress and enter to decompressed folder by just
specifying package partial name:source ./t.sh [package-partial-name] e.g.
source ./t.sh autoco for autoconf-2.68 package.NOTE: package-partial-name
should be long enough to distinct the package from others e.g. source ./t.sh bi
is not suitable at all because can not distinct between binutils and bison!Do
the book's instructions to configure, compile, test and install the
package.Issue following command to undo the above instruction #1.source
../ut.sh.
Sicerely Yours,
Yasser.
