Install libpaper by running the following commands:
autoreconf -fi && ./configure --prefix=/usr \ --sysconfdir=/etc \ --disable-static && make
This package does not come with a test suite.
Now, as the root
user:
make install &&
mkdir -vp /etc/libpaper.d &&
cat > /usr/bin/run-parts << "EOF"
#!/bin/sh
# run-parts: Runs all the scripts found in a directory.
# from Slackware, by Patrick J. Volkerding with ideas borrowed
# from the Red Hat and Debian versions of this utility.
# keep going when something fails
set +e
if [ $# -lt 1 ]; then
echo "Usage: run-parts <directory>"
exit 1
fi
if [ ! -d $1 ]; then
echo "Not a directory: $1"
echo "Usage: run-parts <directory>"
exit 1
fi
# There are several types of files that we would like to
# ignore automatically, as they are likely to be backups
# of other scripts:
IGNORE_SUFFIXES="~ ^ , .bak .new .rpmsave .rpmorig .rpmnew .swp"
# Main loop:
for SCRIPT in $1/* ; do
# If this is not a regular file, skip it:
if [ ! -f $SCRIPT ]; then
continue
fi
# Determine if this file should be skipped by suffix:
SKIP=false
for SUFFIX in $IGNORE_SUFFIXES ; do
if [ ! "$(basename $SCRIPT $SUFFIX)" = "$(basename $SCRIPT)" ]; then
SKIP=true
break
fi
done
if [ "$SKIP" = "true" ]; then
continue
fi
# If we've made it this far, then run the script if it's executable:
if [ -x $SCRIPT ]; then
$SCRIPT || echo "$SCRIPT failed."
fi
done
exit 0
EOF
chmod -v 755 /usr/bin/run-parts
--disable-static
: This
switch prevents installation of static versions of the libraries.
mkdir -pv /etc/libpaper.d: libpaper expects that packages will install files into this directory.
cat > /usr/bin/run-parts <<
"EOF" : paperconfig
is a script which will invoke run-parts if /etc/libpaper.d
exists. No other BLFS package
installs this, so we create it here.
