Building

The official releases should build and install using autotools:

See the BUILDING file for more details.

Packaging notes

Bash completion scripts: optional configure argument --with-bash-completion-dir[=DIR].

  • If DIR is specified, it installs to that directory.

  • If DIR is left blank, it attempts to use pkg-config and bash-completion >= 2.0 to determine where to put the bash completion scripts. If your system does not match those requirements, please specify DIR explicitly.
