Some programs are essential for system use when,for example, /usr isn't mounted (like the e2fsck program).  These programs and libraries therefore belong in directories like /lib and /sbin. If this option isn't passed to e2fsprogs' configure, it places these programs in /usr which  is not what we want.</para><para><userinput>--enable-elf-shlibs:</userinput> This creates sharedlibraries that some programs in this package can make use of.</para><para><userinput>make install-libs:</userinput> This installs the sharedlibraries that are built.</para></sect2>
