The following are only used if building the full package instead of only the main libraries: Boost-1.82.0, c-ares-1.19.1, cython-0.29.35, jansson-2.14, libevent-2.1.12, sphinx-7.0.1, jemalloc, libev, mruby, and Spdylay.
CUnit is required if you wish to run the test suite.
User Notes: https://wiki.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/wiki/nghttp2
Install nghttp2 by running the following commands:
./configure --prefix=/usr \ --disable-static \ --enable-lib-only \ --docdir=/usr/share/doc/nghttp2-1.53.0 && make
The test suite needs CUnit, which is beyond the scope of BLFS.
Now, as the root
user:
make install
--disable-static
: This
switch prevents installation of static versions of the libraries.
--enable-lib-only
: only
build libnghttp2. Omit this switch if you'd like to build the
example applications, Python bindings, or the C++ asio library.
