| To build and install rsync |
| |
| $ ./configure |
| $ make |
| # make install |
| |
| You may set the installation directory and other parameters by options |
| to ./configure. To see them, use: |
| |
| $ ./configure --help |
| |
| As of 2.4.7, rsync uses Eric Troan's popt option-parsing library. A |
| cut-down copy of release 1.5 is included in the rsync distribution, |
| and will be used it there is no popt library on your build host, or if |
| the --with-included-popt option is passed to ./configure. |
| |
| If you configure using --enable-maintainer-mode, then rsync will try |
| to pop up an xterm on DISPLAY=:0 if it crashes. You might find this |
| useful, but it should be turned off for production builds. |

| HP-UX NOTES |
| ----------- |
| |
| The HP-UX 10.10 "bundled" C compiler seems not to be able to cope with |
| ANSI C. You may see this error message in config.log if ./configure |
| fails: |
| |
| (Bundled) cc: "configure", line 2162: error 1705: Function prototypes are an ANSI feature. |
| |
| Install gcc or HP's "ANSI/C Compiler". |
| |

| |
| MAC OSX NOTES |
| ------------- |
| |
| Mac OS X (Darwin) seems to have an IPv6 stack, but it does not |
| completely implement the "New Sockets" API. |
| |
| <http://www.ipv6.org/impl/mac.html> says that Apple do not support |
| IPv6 yet. If your build fails, try again with --disable-ipv6. |
