8.6.2. Contents of Zlib
Installed libraries:
libz.so
The Zlib package contains compression and decompression routines used by some programs.
Prepare Zlib for compilation:
./configure --prefix=/usr
Compile the package:
make
To test the results, issue:
make check
Install the package:
make install
The shared library needs to be moved to /lib
, and as a result the .so
file in /usr/lib
will need to be recreated:
mv -v /usr/lib/libz.so.* /lib ln -sfv ../../lib/$(readlink /usr/lib/libz.so) /usr/lib/libz.so
Remove an useless static library:
rm -fv /usr/lib/libz.a
