Kapittel 2. General Libraries

libev-4.33

Introduction to libev

The libev package is a full-featured, high-performant library containing an event loop loosely modelled after libevent.

Installation of libev

Install libev by running the following commands: 

./configure --prefix=/usr --disable-static &&
make

Now, as the root user: 

make   DESTDIR=$PWD/DESTDIR install &&
rm -v  DESTDIR/usr/include/event.h  &&
cp -vR DESTDIR/usr/* /usr           &&
ldconfig

Command Explanations

--disable-static: Denne bryteren forhindrer installasjon av statiske versjoner av bibliotekene.

rm -v DESTDIR/usr/include/event.h: This command removes a file before installation that conflicts with libevent. If it is not removed, packages that depend on libevent will fail to build as they assume event.h is provided by libevent which would be incorrect.
