*****************************************************************
PlusPack for ASL 4.xxx
by Tom Kistner aka duncanthrax 2003
*****************************************************************
This package is NOT released nor supported by Astaro Corporation.
Installing this package may void your support contract.
*****************************************************************
The PlusPack is an add-on to Astaro Security Linux. It contains
GNU software. You can get the sources from ftp.gnu.org.
The PlusPack contains:
- glibc
- gcc
- coreutils
- binutils
- ncurses
- wget
- nano
- automake
- autoconf
- glib
- libpcap
- tcpdump
This basic set allows you to compile everything else you need on
the ASL distribution itself.
INSTALLATION
------------
- SCP tarball to your ASL machine (/tmp)
- Login as root
- Unpack the tarball in /var/chroot-report:
cd /var/chroot-report
tar xvzf pluspack-asl-4.xxx.tar.gz
- run the setup perl script
opt/setup.pl
- log out and back in to update the
environment
USAGE
-----
When compiling things, I heavily recommend to call ./configure
with a prefix of "/opt", like this:
./configure --prefix=/opt [other options]
This will make sure that no system files will get overwritten
on installation.
There is an exception from this rule: If you compile libraries,
you may have to install them to / (root), because not all
binaries correctly use the dynamic linker, but instead blindly
look for .so files in /lib or /usr/lib.
