Optional
Installation of libtasn1
Install libtasn1 by running the following commands:
./configure --prefix=/usr --disable-static && make
To test the results, issue: make check.
Now, as the root
user:
make install
If you did not pass the --enable-gtk-doc parameter
to the configure script, you can install the API
documentation using the following command as the
root user:
make -C doc/reference install-data-local
Command Explanations
--disable-static: This switch prevents
installation of static versions of the libraries.
--enable-gtk-doc: This parameter is normally
used if GTK-Doc is installed and you wish
to rebuild and install the API documentation. It is broken for
this package due to the use of a long deprecated gtk-doc program
that is no longer available.
