Basic Installation
==================
DAVFS2 1.???? INSTALLATION
=========================
Briefly, the shell command `./configure && make && make install'
should configure, build, and install this package. The following
more-detailed instructions are generic; see the `README' file for
instructions specific to this package. Some packages provide this
`INSTALL' file but do not implement all of the features documented
below. The lack of an optional feature in a given package is not
necessarily a bug. More recommendations for GNU packages can be found
in *note Makefile Conventions: (standards)Makefile Conventions.
1 UPDATING FROM PREVIOUS VERSION
2 INSTALLATION
2.1 PREREQUISITE
2.2 INSTALLATION FROM CVS SOURCES
2.3 INSTALLATION FROM SOURCE PACKAGE
3 UNINSTALL
The `configure' shell script attempts to guess correct values for
various system-dependent variables used during compilation. It uses
those values to create a `Makefile' in each directory of the package.
It may also create one or more `.h' files containing system-dependent
definitions. Finally, it creates a shell script `config.status' that
you can run in the future to recreate the current configuration, and a
file `config.log' containing compiler output (useful mainly for
debugging `configure').
1 UPDATING FROM PREVIOUS VERSION
================================
It can also use an optional file (typically called `config.cache'
and enabled with `--cache-file=config.cache' or simply `-C') that saves
the results of its tests to speed up reconfiguring. Caching is
disabled by default to prevent problems with accidental use of stale
cache files.
'make install' copies new versions of davfs2.conf and secrets
into /usr/local/etc/davfs2 or /etc/davfs2 and creates a backup of the
existing files. You will have to merge your changes from the backup
into the new files.
If you need to do unusual things to compile the package, please try
to figure out how `configure' could check whether to do them, and mail
diffs or instructions to the address given in the `README' so they can
be considered for the next release. If you are using the cache, and at
some point `config.cache' contains results you don't want to keep, you
may remove or edit it.
When a user invokes the new version of mount.davfs the first time, it
will only copy new versions of davfs2.conf and secrets into ~/.davfs2,
if this files do not exist. The user should rename this files before
invoking mount.davfs. After the new configuration files have been
installed the user may merge the changes form the old files into
the new versions.
The file `configure.ac' (or `configure.in') is used to create
`configure' by a program called `autoconf'. You need `configure.ac' if
you want to change it or regenerate `configure' using a newer version
of `autoconf'.
The simplest way to compile this package is:
2 INSTALLATION
==============
1. `cd' to the directory containing the package's source code and type
`./configure' to configure the package for your system.
2.1 PREREQUISITE
----------------
Running `configure' might take a while. While running, it prints
some messages telling which features it is checking for.
davfs2 uses the neon libraries for communication with the server.
libneon (0.25, 0.26, 0.27, 0.28 or 0.29) must be installed. Your distribution
will most likely provide a package.
You will also need the neon header files. Distributions usually provide
development packages for this.
If your distribution don't come with libneon or it does not support TLS and
large files, you may build your own neon library. You can get it from
http://www.webdav.org/neon/
2. Type `make' to compile the package.
Your kernel must include either the coda file system or the fuse file system
or both. They may be loadable modules. Almost all Linux 2.6 kernels or newer
support at least one of them.
3. Optionally, type `make check' to run any self-tests that come with
the package, generally using the just-built uninstalled binaries.
4. Type `make install' to install the programs and any data files and
documentation. When installing into a prefix owned by root, it is
recommended that the package be configured and built as a regular
user, and only the `make install' phase executed with root
privileges.
2.2 INSTALLATION FROM CVS SOURCES
---------------------------------
5. Optionally, type `make installcheck' to repeat any self-tests, but
this time using the binaries in their final installed location.
This target does not install anything. Running this target as a
regular user, particularly if the prior `make install' required
root privileges, verifies that the installation completed
correctly.
To build davfs2 from the CVS sources you need recent versions of the some
build tools. The build process is tested with the versions mentioned below.
Other versions may work but you have to take care of possible incombatibilities
between some versions of these tools and may need to tweak configure.ac.
Gnulib will require to use a version of gettext that was recent at the time
Gnulib was taken from the repository.
6. You can remove the program binaries and object files from the
source code directory by typing `make clean'. To also remove the
files that `configure' created (so you can compile the package for
a different kind of computer), type `make distclean'. There is
also a `make maintainer-clean' target, but that is intended mainly
for the package's developers. If you use it, you may have to get
all sorts of other programs in order to regenerate files that came
with the distribution.
- GNU Autoconf 2.67
- GNU Automake 1.11.1
- GNU gettext-tools 0.18.1
- po4a 0.40.2
- gperf 3.0.3
- Gnulib from 2010-07-04
The bootstrap script must be able to find gnulib-tool. If you are not using
gnulib from your distribution you might create a symbolic link to gnulib-tool
in a directory that is in your PATH environment variable.
7. Often, you can also type `make uninstall' to remove the installed
files again. In practice, not all packages have tested that
uninstallation works correctly, even though it is required by the
GNU Coding Standards.
Change into the top level source directory and run
$ ./bootstrap
This will add some necessary files, create the configure script and the
Makefile.in's, and build the translated man pages from the po-files.
8. Some packages, particularly those that use Automake, provide `make
distcheck', which can by used by developers to test that all other
targets like `make install' and `make uninstall' work correctly.
This target is generally not run by end users.
Proceed with Installation from Source Package.
Compilers and Options
=====================
Some systems require unusual options for compilation or linking that
the `configure' script does not know about. Run `./configure --help'
for details on some of the pertinent environment variables.
2.3 INSTALLATION FROM SOURCE PACKAGE
------------------------------------
You can give `configure' initial values for configuration parameters
by setting variables in the command line or in the environment. Here
is an example:
From within the top level source directory:
./configure CC=c99 CFLAGS=-g LIBS=-lposix
- Run the configure script.
$ ./configure [options]
This will test your system and finally create the appropriate Makefiles.
You may add some options or set some variables, but hopefully will not
have to.
*Note Defining Variables::, for more details.
Options and variables:
----------------------
Compiling For Multiple Architectures
====================================
--prefix=<prefix>
Defines the directory where davfs2 will be installed. It defaults to
'/usr/local'. If your sources came with your distribution it may
be '/usr'.
You can compile the package for more than one kind of computer at the
same time, by placing the object files for each architecture in their
own directory. To do this, you can use GNU `make'. `cd' to the
directory where you want the object files and executables to go and run
the `configure' script. `configure' automatically checks for the
source code in the directory that `configure' is in and in `..'. This
is known as a "VPATH" build.
--with-neon=<directory>
Directory where to find the neon library and the neon headers.
Default is to first try /usr/local and then /usr. If you just have
neon libraries in /usr/lib and headers in /usr/include, you don't
need this.
With a non-GNU `make', it is safer to compile the package for one
architecture at a time in the source code directory. After you have
installed the package for one architecture, use `make distclean' before
reconfiguring for another architecture.
--disable-nls
Disable the support for national languages.
On MacOS X 10.5 and later systems, you can create libraries and
executables that work on multiple system types--known as "fat" or
"universal" binaries--by specifying multiple `-arch' options to the
compiler but only a single `-arch' option to the preprocessor. Like
this:
LINGUAS="ll ll ll"
A list of two-letter language codes. This will select which of the
available translations of messages and documentation will be installed.
ll must be in lower case.
./configure CC="gcc -arch i386 -arch x86_64 -arch ppc -arch ppc64" \
CXX="g++ -arch i386 -arch x86_64 -arch ppc -arch ppc64" \
CPP="gcc -E" CXXCPP="g++ -E"
dav_user=<davfs2>
A system user without shell. mount.davfs will run with this id when
invoked by root. Default dav_user is "davfs2".
This is not guaranteed to produce working output in all cases, you
may have to build one architecture at a time and combine the results
using the `lipo' tool if you have problems.
dav_group=<davfs2>
A system group. mount.davfs will be member of this group. Normal users
must be member of this group in order to mount. Default dav_group is
"davfs2".
./configure --help will show all available options.
- Run make.
$ make
This will compile the program.
Installation Names
==================
- Gain root permissions and run make install.
# make install
This will copy all the files in the appropriate directory.
Note: 'mount.davfs' will be setuid root!
By default, `make install' installs the package's commands under
`/usr/local/bin', include files under `/usr/local/include', etc. You
can specify an installation prefix other than `/usr/local' by giving
`configure' the option `--prefix=PREFIX', where PREFIX must be an
absolute file name.
- Create the system user 'davfs2' and group 'davfs2' if they not yet exist.
The system user should not have a shell. Proposed home directory is
'/var/cache/davfs2'.
You can specify separate installation prefixes for
architecture-specific files and architecture-independent files. If you
pass the option `--exec-prefix=PREFIX' to `configure', the package uses
PREFIX as the prefix for installing programs and libraries.
Documentation and other data files still use the regular prefix.
- Get rid of the root permissions.
In addition, if you use an unusual directory layout you can give
options like `--bindir=DIR' to specify different values for particular
kinds of files. Run `configure --help' for a list of the directories
you can set and what kinds of files go in them. In general, the
default for these options is expressed in terms of `${prefix}', so that
specifying just `--prefix' will affect all of the other directory
specifications that were not explicitly provided.
The most portable way to affect installation locations is to pass the
correct locations to `configure'; however, many packages provide one or
both of the following shortcuts of passing variable assignments to the
`make install' command line to change installation locations without
having to reconfigure or recompile.
3 UNINSTALL
===========
The first method involves providing an override variable for each
affected directory. For example, `make install
prefix=/alternate/directory' will choose an alternate location for all
directory configuration variables that were expressed in terms of
`${prefix}'. Any directories that were specified during `configure',
but not in terms of `${prefix}', must each be overridden at install
time for the entire installation to be relocated. The approach of
makefile variable overrides for each directory variable is required by
the GNU Coding Standards, and ideally causes no recompilation.
However, some platforms have known limitations with the semantics of
shared libraries that end up requiring recompilation when using this
method, particularly noticeable in packages that use GNU Libtool.
To uninstall davfs2 the sources have to be configured just the same way
they were configured for installation.
The second method involves providing the `DESTDIR' variable. For
example, `make install DESTDIR=/alternate/directory' will prepend
`/alternate/directory' before all installation names. The approach of
`DESTDIR' overrides is not required by the GNU Coding Standards, and
does not work on platforms that have drive letters. On the other hand,
it does better at avoiding recompilation issues, and works well even
when some directory options were not specified in terms of `${prefix}'
at `configure' time.
From within the top level source directory run with root permissions
# make uninstall
This will remove all the installed files.
Optional Features
=================
Note: The directories will not be removed.
Files and directories created by mount.davfs at run-time will *not* be
removed too.
This are: pid-files (in /var/run/mount.davfs), cache files and
directories (in /var/cache/davfs2) and all the files in the users
home directories in .davfs2.
This files have to be removed manually.
If the package supports it, you can cause programs to be installed
with an extra prefix or suffix on their names by giving `configure' the
option `--program-prefix=PREFIX' or `--program-suffix=SUFFIX'.
Some packages pay attention to `--enable-FEATURE' options to
`configure', where FEATURE indicates an optional part of the package.
They may also pay attention to `--with-PACKAGE' options, where PACKAGE
is something like `gnu-as' or `x' (for the X Window System). The
`README' should mention any `--enable-' and `--with-' options that the
package recognizes.
For packages that use the X Window System, `configure' can usually
find the X include and library files automatically, but if it doesn't,
you can use the `configure' options `--x-includes=DIR' and
`--x-libraries=DIR' to specify their locations.
Some packages offer the ability to configure how verbose the
execution of `make' will be. For these packages, running `./configure
--enable-silent-rules' sets the default to minimal output, which can be
overridden with `make V=1'; while running `./configure
--disable-silent-rules' sets the default to verbose, which can be
overridden with `make V=0'.
Particular systems
==================
On HP-UX, the default C compiler is not ANSI C compatible. If GNU
CC is not installed, it is recommended to use the following options in
order to use an ANSI C compiler:
./configure CC="cc -Ae -D_XOPEN_SOURCE=500"
and if that doesn't work, install pre-built binaries of GCC for HP-UX.
HP-UX `make' updates targets which have the same time stamps as
their prerequisites, which makes it generally unusable when shipped
generated files such as `configure' are involved. Use GNU `make'
instead.
On OSF/1 a.k.a. Tru64, some versions of the default C compiler cannot
parse its `<wchar.h>' header file. The option `-nodtk' can be used as
a workaround. If GNU CC is not installed, it is therefore recommended
to try
./configure CC="cc"
and if that doesn't work, try
./configure CC="cc -nodtk"
On Solaris, don't put `/usr/ucb' early in your `PATH'. This
directory contains several dysfunctional programs; working variants of
these programs are available in `/usr/bin'. So, if you need `/usr/ucb'
in your `PATH', put it _after_ `/usr/bin'.
On Haiku, software installed for all users goes in `/boot/common',
not `/usr/local'. It is recommended to use the following options:
./configure --prefix=/boot/common
Specifying the System Type
==========================
There may be some features `configure' cannot figure out
automatically, but needs to determine by the type of machine the package
will run on. Usually, assuming the package is built to be run on the
_same_ architectures, `configure' can figure that out, but if it prints
a message saying it cannot guess the machine type, give it the
`--build=TYPE' option. TYPE can either be a short name for the system
type, such as `sun4', or a canonical name which has the form:
CPU-COMPANY-SYSTEM
where SYSTEM can have one of these forms:
OS
KERNEL-OS
See the file `config.sub' for the possible values of each field. If
`config.sub' isn't included in this package, then this package doesn't
need to know the machine type.
If you are _building_ compiler tools for cross-compiling, you should
use the option `--target=TYPE' to select the type of system they will
produce code for.
If you want to _use_ a cross compiler, that generates code for a
platform different from the build platform, you should specify the
"host" platform (i.e., that on which the generated programs will
eventually be run) with `--host=TYPE'.
Sharing Defaults
================
If you want to set default values for `configure' scripts to share,
you can create a site shell script called `config.site' that gives
default values for variables like `CC', `cache_file', and `prefix'.
`configure' looks for `PREFIX/share/config.site' if it exists, then
`PREFIX/etc/config.site' if it exists. Or, you can set the
`CONFIG_SITE' environment variable to the location of the site script.
A warning: not all `configure' scripts look for a site script.
Defining Variables
==================
Variables not defined in a site shell script can be set in the
environment passed to `configure'. However, some packages may run
configure again during the build, and the customized values of these
variables may be lost. In order to avoid this problem, you should set
them in the `configure' command line, using `VAR=value'. For example:
./configure CC=/usr/local2/bin/gcc
causes the specified `gcc' to be used as the C compiler (unless it is
overridden in the site shell script).
Unfortunately, this technique does not work for `CONFIG_SHELL' due to
an Autoconf limitation. Until the limitation is lifted, you can use
this workaround:
CONFIG_SHELL=/bin/bash ./configure CONFIG_SHELL=/bin/bash
`configure' Invocation
======================
`configure' recognizes the following options to control how it
operates.
`--help'
`-h'
Print a summary of all of the options to `configure', and exit.
`--help=short'
`--help=recursive'
Print a summary of the options unique to this package's
`configure', and exit. The `short' variant lists options used
only in the top level, while the `recursive' variant lists options
also present in any nested packages.
`--version'
`-V'
Print the version of Autoconf used to generate the `configure'
script, and exit.
`--cache-file=FILE'
Enable the cache: use and save the results of the tests in FILE,
traditionally `config.cache'. FILE defaults to `/dev/null' to
disable caching.
`--config-cache'
`-C'
Alias for `--cache-file=config.cache'.
`--quiet'
`--silent'
`-q'
Do not print messages saying which checks are being made. To
suppress all normal output, redirect it to `/dev/null' (any error
messages will still be shown).
`--srcdir=DIR'
Look for the package's source code in directory DIR. Usually
`configure' can determine that directory automatically.
`--prefix=DIR'
Use DIR as the installation prefix. *note Installation Names::
for more details, including other options available for fine-tuning
the installation locations.
`--no-create'
`-n'
Run the configure checks, but stop before creating any output
files.
`configure' also accepts some other, not widely useful, options. Run
`configure --help' for more details.
