<title>Installation of E2fsprogs</title>

<para>It is recommended to build E2fsprogs outside of the
source tree:</para>

<screen><userinput>mkdir ../e2fsprogs-build
cd ../e2fsprogs-build</userinput></screen>

<para>Prepare E2fsprogs for compilation:</para>

<screen><userinput>../&e2fsprogs-dir;/configure --prefix=/usr --with-root-prefix="" \
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;--enable-elf-shlibs</userinput></screen>

<para>The meaning of the configure options:</para>

<itemizedlist>
<listitem><para><userinput>--with-root-prefix=""</userinput>: Certain
programs (such as the e2fsck program) are considered essential programs.
When, for example, <filename class="directory">/usr</filename> isn't
mounted, these essential programs have to be available. They belong in
directories like <filename class="directory">/lib</filename> and
<filename class="directory">/sbin</filename>. If this option isn't passed
to E2fsprogs's configure, the programs are placed in the
<filename class="directory">/usr</filename> directory, which is not what we
want.</para></listitem>

<listitem><para><userinput>--enable-elf-shlibs</userinput>: This creates
the shared libraries which some programs in this package make use
of.</para></listitem>
</itemizedlist>

<para>Compile the package:</para>

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

<para>This package has a test suite available which can perform a number of
checks to ensure it built correctly.  Should you choose to run it, the 
following command will do so:</para>

<screen><userinput>make check</userinput></screen>

<para>Install most of the package:</para>

<screen><userinput>make install</userinput></screen>

<para>And install also the shared libraries:</para>

<screen><userinput>make install-libs</userinput></screen>
