## Installation of Cdrtools

### Note

This package does not support parallel build.

Install Cdrtools by running the following commands:

    sed -i 's|/opt/schily|/usr|g'           DEFAULTS/Defaults.linux &&
    sed -i 's|DEFINSGRP=.*|DEFINSGRP=root|' DEFAULTS/Defaults.linux &&
    sed -i 's|INSDIR=\s*sbin|INSDIR=bin|'   rscsi/Makefile          &&

    export GMAKE_NOWARN=true &&
    export CFLAGS="$CFLAGS -std=gnu89 -fno-strict-aliasing" &&

    make -j1 INS_BASE=/usr  \
             DEFINSUSR=root \
             DEFINSGRP=root \
             VERSION_OS="LinuxFromScratch"

This package does not come with a test suite.

Now, as the `root` user:

    GMAKE_NOWARN=true &&

    make INS_BASE=/usr    \
         DEFINSUSR=root   \
         DEFINSGRP=root   \
         MANSUFF_LIB=3cdr \
         install          &&

    install -v -m755 -d /usr/share/doc/cdrtools-3.02a09 &&
    install -v -m644 README.* READMEs/* ABOUT doc/*.ps \
                        /usr/share/doc/cdrtools-3.02a09

## Command Explanations

export GMAKE_NOWARN=true: This variable avoids a warning when using GNU make.

`INS_BASE=/usr`: This parameter moves the install directory from `/opt/schily` to `/usr`.

`DEFINSUSR=root DEFINSGRP=root`: These parameters install all programs with root:root ownership instead of the default bin:bin.

`MANSUFF_LIB=3cdr`: This parameter prevents Cdrtools from overwriting important pages which are already installed by LFS. The installed man pages of section 3 will have a suffix `3cdr` and can be shown using man 3cdr <manpage>.
