Node:Optional Features, Next:System Type, Previous:Installation Names, Up:Running configure scripts
Some packages pay attention to --enable-feature
options
to configure
, where feature indicates an optional part
of the package. They may also pay attention to
--with-package
options, where package is something
like gnu-as
or x
(for the X Window System). The
README
should mention any --enable-
and --with-
options that the package recognizes.
For packages that use the X Window System, configure
can
usually find the X include and library files automatically, but if it
doesn't, you can use the configure
options
--x-includes=dir
and --x-libraries=dir
to
specify their locations.
