First time compiling GRASS on SuSE. I do not have su privileges on this
machine and so I am forced to build my entire tool chain in my home
directory ($HOME)=/we/davidf).
So far fftw-3.1.2, gdal-1.4.2 and proj-4.5.0 have all compiled using the
following:
./configure --prefix=$HOME
make
make install
Which has built a directory tree in $HOME like this:
$HOME/bin
$HOME/include
$HOME/lib
$HOME/man
$HOME/share
Now, trying the same with grass results in a configure error:
albacore src/grass-6.2.cvs_src_snapshot_2007_07_07> ./configure
--prefix=$HOME --enable-64bit --with-libs=/usr/lib64
checking host system type... x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu
checking for gcc... gcc
checking whether the C compiler (gcc ) works... yes
... etc ...
checking for deflate in -lz... yes
checking for location of External PROJ.4 includes...
checking for proj_api.h... no
configure: error: *** Unable to locate External PROJ.4 includes.
However, proj_api.h is in $HOME/include
I have tried adding --includedir=$HOME/include to the above but that didn't
change anything. I'm sure it's something simple. How do I tell configure
where my local includes are (and why didn't --prefix=$HOME work?)
See ./configure --help
Summary:
--with-includes=$HOME/include
or if it was just PROJ there then you could use
--with-proj-includes=$HOME/include
--prefix is where GRASS will be installed when you type "make install" -
consistent with your use of it to indicate where you wanted the supporting
libraries installed.
As Helena says you also need to specify where the libraries are too using
--with-libs or --with-proj-libs.
That's only for compiling though; if you also want to *run* GRASS without
installing the libraries into a system library location you will need to
add $HOME/lib to the LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable
(DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH on OS X) or (on Linux, if you have root access) adding
it to /etc/ld.so.conf and running ldconfig after you compile the new
libraries.
