<para>Prepare Inetutils to be compiled:</para>

<para><screen><userinput>./configure --prefix=/usr --disable-syslogd \
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;--libexecdir=/usr/sbin --disable-logger</userinput></screen></para>

<para>The meanings of the configure options are:</para>

<itemizedlist>
<listitem><para><userinput>--disable-syslogd</userinput>: This option
prevents inetutils from installing the System Log Daemon, which is
installed with the Sysklogd package.</para></listitem>

<listitem><para><userinput>--disable-logger</userinput>: This option
prevents inetutils from installing the logger program, which is used by
scripts to pass messages to the System Log Daemon. We do not install it
because Util-linux installs a better version later.</para></listitem>
</itemizedlist>

<para>Continue with compiling the package:</para>

<para><screen><userinput>make</userinput></screen></para>

<para>Finish installing the package:</para>
