1 | To build and install rsync |

3 | $ ./configure | |
4 | $ make | |
5 | # make install | |

7 | You may set the installation directory and other parameters by options | |
8 | to ./configure. To see them, use: | |
9 | ||
10 | $ ./configure --help | |

12 | As of 2.4.7, rsync uses Eric Troan's popt option-parsing library. A | |
13 | cut-down copy of release 1.5 is included in the rsync distribution, | |
14 | and will be used it there is no popt library on your build host, or if | |
15 | the --with-included-popt option is passed to ./configure. | |

17 | If you configure using --enable-maintainer-mode, then rsync will try |
18 | to pop up an xterm on DISPLAY=:0 if it crashes. You might find this | |
19 | useful, but it should be turned off for production builds. | |

22 | HP-UX NOTES | |
23 | ----------- | |
24 | ||
25 | The HP-UX 10.10 "bundled" C compiler seems not to be able to cope with | |
26 | ANSI C. You may see this error message in config.log if ./configure | |
27 | fails: | |
28 | ||
29 | (Bundled) cc: "configure", line 2162: error 1705: Function prototypes are an ANSI feature. | |
30 | ||
31 | Install gcc or HP's "ANSI/C Compiler". | |

35 | MAC OSX NOTES | |
36 | ------------- | |
37 | ||
38 | Mac OS X (Darwin) seems to have an IPv6 stack, but it does not | |
39 | completely implement the "New Sockets" API. | |
40 | ||
41 | <http://www.ipv6.org/impl/mac.html> says that Apple do not support | |
42 | IPv6 yet. If your build fails, try again with --disable-ipv6. | |
