The sentence about going into specific subdirectories was part of the context, and not part of the patch. If we want to update that, too, I think it should be a separate patch. -- David VL ________________________________________ From: Mathieu Desnoyers [mathieu.desnoy...@efficios.com] Sent: Thursday, August 08, 2013 8:23 AM To: Thibault, Daniel Cc: lttng-dev@lists.lttng.org; VomLehn, David Subject: Re: [lttng-dev] [PATCH lttv] Add build instructions for git tree pulls and use more standard formatting * Thibault, Daniel (daniel.thiba...@drdc-rddc.gc.ca) wrote: > ------------------------------ > Date: Wed, 7 Aug 2013 12:48:53 -0700 > From: Vomlehn <vomle...@amazon.com> > > -- ./configure > -- make > -- make install > + $ ./configure > + $ make > + $ make install > + > +To compile the source tree from a git checkout, use: > + > + $ autoreconf > + $ automake --add-missing --gnu > + $ make > + $ make install > > After running ./configure, you can also go in specific subdirectories and > use make, make install. > ------------------------------ > > Actually, in each instance of 'make install', you'll need to use 'sudo > make install'. (as root) # make install would be the proper way to document this. sudo is just one way to gain root privileges. "su" can be used on many distributions for this too. Also, if a configure --prefix is used to target a user-writeable directory, root is not required (but it's generally not the case). Thanks, Mathieu > > Daniel U.
