10.90. XZ Utils-5.0.5 N32 Libraries

The XZ-Utils package contains programs for compressing and decompressing files. Compressing text files with XZ-Utils yields a much better compression percentage than with the traditional gzip.

10.90.1. Installation of XZ Utils

Prepare XZ-Utils for compilation: 

CC="gcc ${BUILDN32}" ./configure --prefix=/usr --libdir=/lib32

Compile the package: 

make

To test the results, issue: make check.

Install the programs: 

make pkgconfigdir=/usr/lib32/pkgconfig install

Move the static libraries to the proper location: 

mv -v /lib32/liblzma.a /usr/lib32

Details on this package are located in Section 10.91.2, “Contents of XZ-Utils.”
