Postby kiki » Oct 31st, '11, 04:25

hi,

if I want to install a package from source with commands
Code: Select all
./configure
make
make install

what base packages I need to run those commands?

Hello,
You need at least gcc, make and all the dependences which can be a lot.

You should at least install task-c++-devel, that installs all the base packages needed to compile (autotools, gcc ...).

Maybe the package "checkinstall" also is a good idea to install because of easy uninstall of compiled packages.

./configure
make
checkinstall
