Provide build instructions

Open frainz-de opened this issue 3 years ago • 4 comments

Real developers probably don't need this. However, it would be nice for beginners to have the required commands for building libnl on the website or in a readme. Maybe like this:

Building:

# sh autogen.sh
# sh configure
# make
# make install

You can run the rpmbuild -bp command to add the current patch, run the ./configure command in the libnl3 directory, and then run the make command to execute the test case and run the make check command. The automake version must be 1.16.1.

yes, this should be explained in a README.

For what it's worth, this is the common procedure how to build autotools based software. If you are familar with that, it should not be new. Yes, I know that's not helpful to say, if you are not familiar with it :)

Is there a possibility of compiling this with CMake instead of autotools?

I don't think so.
