<para>First apply a patch:</para>
|
|
|
|
<screen><userinput>patch -Np1 -i ../&expect-patch;</userinput></screen>
|
|
|
|
<para>This fixes a bug in Expect that can result in bogus failures during the
|
|
GCC test suite run.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>Now prepare Expect for compilation:</para>
|
|
|
|
<screen><userinput>./configure --prefix=/tools --with-tcl=/tools/lib --with-x=no</userinput></screen>
|
|
|
|
<para>The meaning of the configure options:</para>
|
|
|
|
<itemizedlist>
|
|
<listitem><para><userinput>--with-tcl=/tools/lib</userinput>: This ensures that
|
|
the configure script finds the Tcl installation in our temporary tools location.
|
|
We don't want it to find an existing one that may possibly reside on the host
|
|
system.</para></listitem>
|
|
|
|
<listitem><para><userinput>--with-x=no</userinput>: This tells the configure
|
|
script not to search for Tk (the Tcl GUI component) or the X Window System
|
|
libraries, both of which may possibly reside on the host system.</para></listitem>
|
|
</itemizedlist>
|
|
|
|
<para>Build 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. However, the Expect test suite here in
|
|
Chapter 5 is known to experience failures under certain host conditions that
|
|
are not fully understood. Therefore, test suite failures here are not
|
|
surprising, but are not considered critical. Should you choose to run the test
|
|
suite, the following command will do so:</para>
|
|
|
|
<screen><userinput>make test</userinput></screen>
|
|
|
|
<para>And install:</para>
|
|
|
|
<screen><userinput>make SCRIPTS="" install</userinput></screen>
|
|
|
|
<para>The meaning of the make parameter:</para>
|
|
|
|
<itemizedlist>
|
|
<listitem><para><userinput>SCRIPTS=""</userinput>: This prevents installation of
|
|
the supplementary expect scripts which are not needed.</para></listitem>
|
|
</itemizedlist>
|
|
|
|
<para>You can now remove the source directories of both Tcl and Expect.</para>
