# xfsprogs 3.1.11
# ===============
# Slackware 13.0: xfsprogs 3.0.1
# Slackware 13.1: xfsprogs 3.1.1
# Slackware 13.37: xfsprogs 3.1.4
# Slackware 14.0: xfsprogs 3.1.8

# Prerequisites:
# libtool
# tar
# gzip
# gettext (if you don't use --enable-gettext=no)
# rpm (optional?)

# Get it
cd
test -f installed/xfsprogs-3.1.11.tar.gz &&

# Read ./README and ./doc/INSTALL

# Fix the ability to pass --docdir to configure:
test ! -f include/builddefs.in.orig &&
cp -a include/builddefs.in include/builddefs.in.orig
cat include/builddefs.in.orig | sed 's%@datadir@/doc/@pkg_name@%@docdir@%' \

# Configure the build, build it
./configure --prefix=/usr --bindir=/usr/sbin --sbindir=/sbin\
--libexecdir=/usr/lib --libdir=/lib --docdir=/usr/doc/xfsprogs\
--mandir=/usr/man --enable-gettext=no
make

# Become root to install it
su

# Remove the Slackware package, if there is one
test -x /sbin/removepkg && /sbin/removepkg xfsprogs

# Install it
# (the chown is to avoid installed versions being installed by your
# non-root user)
chown -R root:root .
make install
make install-dev
ldconfig

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

# You may want to look through /usr/include/xfs to see if there are
# old files from previous versions that you can remove
# The Slackware xfsdump package may have a conflicting /usr/sbin/xfs_fsr
test -x /usr/sbin/xfs_fsr &&
ln -sf /sbin/xfs_fsr /usr/sbin/xfs_fsr

# Become yourself again
exit

# Save the source for later

# If you ever want to uninstall xfsprogs, this should do it:
cd
su
# This may be over agressive, but it changes often enough...
# Files from other packages may get zapped too: xfsdump, dmapi
