HOWTO

# libjpeg v9c
# ===========
# Slackware 13.0: libjpeg 6b
# Slackware 13.1, 13.37, 14.0: libjpeg v8a
# Slackware 14.1: libjpeg v8a
# Slackware 14.2: Not included - includes libjpeg-turbo and openjpeg

# If you have libjpeg-turbo installed, running "make uninstall"
# (as root) from it's soure directory before beginning here is probably a
# good idea

# Prerequisites:
# pkg-config

# Get it
cd
test -f installed/jpegsrc.v9c.tar.gz && mv installed/jpegsrc.v9c.tar.gz .
test ! -f jpegsrc.v9c.tar.gz &&
wget http://www.ijg.org/files/jpegsrc.v9c.tar.gz

# (this is from mine, if mine is bad, yours is too)

# Read through at least ./README and ./install.txt

# Configure the source for 64-bit
test $(uname -m) = 'x86_64' &&
./configure --prefix=/usr --libdir=/usr/lib64 --mandir=/usr/man

# Configure the build for anything else
test $(uname -m) != 'x86_64' &&

# Test the new build

# Become root to clean up old files and to install it

# Before installing the new version, you may want to check out what
# running programs (daemons, looping scripts, etc.) may be using the
# old version of libjpeg.  Sometimes you can just restart it (after 'make
# install ; ldconfig' below), sometimes you have to rebuild it to get it to
# use the new version.  It depends...  Hint, if you see 'httpd' in the list,
# it's probably PHP (/usr/local/apache2/modules/libphp5.so) that is linked
# with it.  This should list programs that are running now and are linked
# with the old libjpeg shared library:
lsof /usr/lib*/libjpeg.so.*

# Install it
make install
ldconfig

# You may have old shared library files left over because they were found
# in other Slackware packages like 'aaa_elflibs', or because you installed
# them before from source.  The safe choice is to leave them there, in case
# other programs are linked with the older versions.  Just make sure the
# libjpeg.so and libjpeg.so.8 symlinks point to the new version just
# installed and you should be fine.  If you do remove the old versions, and
# really want to clean up everything, you can even remove references to the
# old package files in /var/adm/packages/*

# Make sure your non-root user can remove the source later
chown -R $(logname) .
chmod -R u+w .

# Become yourself again
exit

# Save the source for later
