Installing bconf

Bootstrap (from SCM only)

The repository comes with a bootstrap Makefile. It should only be required for development, as a configure script should be embedded with source releases. It can be easily tweak if required so.

make # Create the bootstrap 'mkconf' in the current directory if required
./mkconf # Create the configuration script

Note that if you configure the build and try to build, the mkconf would be considered up-to-date as all its dependencies are too. To really take into consideration the newly created configuration:

./configure
make clean
make

Configuration and build

Once a configuration script available, you can do the usual:

./configure
# Generated Makefile is a GNUmakefile, use gmake if on *BSDs
make
make install
