This package requires its patch to be applied before you can install it. Make sure it's unpacked before running the installation commands.
Warning: do NOT run make uninstall on this package if you apply the patch to change the libexec directory definition. The uninstall rule in the Makefile file runs a command like rm -rf <libexecdir>/* Since we change the libexec directory to /usr/bin it'll run rm -rf /usr/bin/*
Install Gawk by running the following commands:
patch -Np1 -i ../gawk-3.1.1-2.patch && ./configure --prefix=/usr --libexecdir=/usr/bin && make && make install |
patch -Np1 -i ../gawk-3.1.1-2.patch: This patch alters the code that determines the location of the libexec directory. This patch will allow us to override it by passing --libexecdir to the configure script.
