After having successfully configured and compiled an EMBASSY package then all the libraries and applications need installing to the directory tree you specified using the --prefix
option to the configure
command. This is done using one command:
make install |
In fact, if the compilation had not already been done by typing make
alone, then the above command would perform both the compilation and installation. We recommend, however, that you separate the two phases as we've described them; it helps in detecting where any failures may have happened.
Similarly to the compilation phase, many hundreds of lines will scroll up the screen. It is very rare for there to be errors in the installation phase as long as you checked that you had write permission in the directory tree you specified using --prefix
in the configuration. If all has gone well then the last few lines of the installation output will look something like this.
