Mostly this is just changing http: to https:. In one or two places it removes no-longer-useful URLs.

|
Note please try to install/build official packages for your system.
|
|
If these programs are not available use the following instructions
|
|
to build them and install the results into a directory that you will
|
|
then use when building this package.
|
|
|
|
Even if the official version of a package for your system is too old,
|
|
please install it, as it may be required to build the newer versions.
|
|
The examples below install into $HOME/grep/deps/, so if you are
|
|
going to follow these instructions, first ensure that your $PATH is
|
|
set correctly by running this command:
|
|
|
|
prefix=$HOME/grep/deps
|
|
export PATH=$prefix/bin:$PATH
|
|
|
|
* autoconf *
|
|
|
|
# Note Autoconf 2.62 or newer is needed to build automake-1.11.1
|
|
git clone --depth=1 git://git.sv.gnu.org/autoconf.git
|
|
git checkout v2.62
|
|
autoreconf -vi
|
|
./configure --prefix=$prefix
|
|
make install
|
|
|
|
* automake *
|
|
|
|
# Note help2man is required to build automake fully
|
|
git clone git://git.sv.gnu.org/automake.git
|
|
cd automake
|
|
git checkout v1.11.1
|
|
./bootstrap
|
|
./configure --prefix=$prefix
|
|
make install
|
|
|
|
This package uses XZ utils (successor to LZMA) to create
|
|
a compressed distribution tarball. Using this feature of Automake
|
|
requires version 1.10a or newer, as well as the xz program itself.
|
|
|
|
* xz *
|
|
|
|
git clone git://ctrl.tukaani.org/xz.git
|
|
cd xz
|
|
./autogen.sh
|
|
./configure --prefix=$prefix
|
|
make install
|
|
|
|
Now you can build this package as described in README-hacking.
