<title>FHS compliance notes</title>

<para>The FHS recommends that we use <filename>/var/lib/hwclock</filename>,
instead of the usual <filename>/etc</filename>, as the location for the
<filename>adjtime</filename> file. To make the <userinput>hwclock</userinput>
program FHS-compliant, run the following:</para>

<screen><userinput>cp hwclock/hwclock.c{,.backup}
sed 's%etc/adjtime%var/lib/hwclock/adjtime%' \
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;hwclock/hwclock.c.backup &gt; hwclock/hwclock.c
mkdir -p /var/lib/hwclock</userinput></screen>

<para>Prepare Util-linux for compilation:</para>

<screen><userinput>./configure</userinput></screen>

<para>Compile the package:</para>

<screen><userinput>make HAVE_KILL=yes HAVE_SLN=yes</userinput></screen>

<para>The meaning of the make parameters:</para>

<itemizedlist>
<listitem><para><userinput>HAVE_KILL=yes</userinput>: This prevents the
<userinput>kill</userinput> program (already installed by Procps) from being
built and installed again.</para></listitem>

<listitem><para><userinput>HAVE_SLN=yes</userinput>: This prevents the
<userinput>sln</userinput> program (a statically linked
<userinput>ln</userinput>, already installed by Glibc) from being built and
installed again.</para></listitem>
</itemizedlist>

<para>And install the package:</para>

<screen><userinput>make HAVE_KILL=yes HAVE_SLN=yes install</userinput></screen>
