cd rrdtool-1.2.9
- ./configure --prefix=/path/to/installation && make && make install
+ ./configure --prefix=$INSTALL_DIR && make && make install
Ok, this was very optimistic. This try will probably have ended with
B<configure> complaining about several missing libraries. If you are on a
would prevent rrdtool from building if they are included in their current
state.
- cd $BUILD_DIR
- ./configure --prefix=$INSTALL_DIR --disable-python && make && make install
+ cd $BUILD_DIR/rrdtool-1.2.9
+ ./configure --prefix=$INSTALL_DIR --disable-python && make clean && make && make install
Now go to I<$INSTALL_DIR>B</examples> and run them to see if your
build has been successful.
