CC="gcc ${BUILD32}" ./configure --prefix=/usr \ --docdir=/usr/share/doc/xz-5.0.5
Compile the package:
make
To test the results, issue:
make check
Install the programs:
make install
Finally, move the shared library to a more appropriate location, and recreate the symlink pointing to it:
mv -v /usr/lib/liblzma.so.* /lib ln -sfv ../../lib/$(readlink /usr/lib/liblzma.so) /usr/lib/liblzma.so
