The popt package contains the popt libraries which are used by some programs to parse command line options.
Install popt by running the following commands:
./configure --prefix=/usr && make && make install |
As with most libraries, there is no configuration to do, save that the library directory i.e. /usr/lib or /usr/local/lib should appear in /etc/ld.so.conf so that ldd can find the shared libraries. After checking that this is the case, /sbin/ldconfig should be run while logged in as root.
The popt package contains the libpopt libraries.
