  3. <para><userinput>--with-root-prefix="":</userinput> The
  4. reason for supplying this option is because of the setup of the
  5. e2fsprogs Makefile. Some programs are essential for system use when,
  6. for example, /usr isn't mounted (like the e2fsck program). These
  7. programs and libraries, therefore, belong in directories like /lib and
  8. /sbin. If this option isn't passed to E2fsprogs's configure, it places
  9. these programs in /usr, which is not what we want.</para>
  10. <para><userinput>--enable-elf-shlibs:</userinput> This creates shared
  11. libraries that some programs in this package can make use of.</para>
  12. <para><userinput>make install-libs:</userinput> This installs the shared
  13. libraries that are built.</para>
  14. <para><userinput>install-info...:</userinput> This updates the
  15. <filename>/usr/share/info/dir</filename> file to include this package's
  16. info pages to the index.</para>
