Installation Question! (A suggestion)

[Angelo Graziosi]

The best thing to do would be to build configuring in this way


   prefix_dir="/usr/local/gfortran"

   ${gcc_dir}/configure --prefix=${prefix_dir} \
                        --exec-prefix=${prefix_dir} \
			--sysconfdir=${prefix_dir}/etc \
		        --libdir=${prefix_dir}/lib \
			--libexecdir=${prefix_dir}/lib \
			--mandir=${prefix_dir}/share/man \
			--infodir=${prefix_dir}/share/info \

                    +   other needed options


Then the tar-ball could be installed :

       (sudo) tar -xjvf gfortran-sys_pakage.tar.bz2 -C /

(why still .gz?)


Cheers,

     Angelo.
