Comment(by bdubbs@…):
I haven't tested the applications but the build works pretty well without
the patches and sed. I note that snice is not there, but the current man
page for snice/skill says:
"These tools are probably obsolete and unportable. The command syntax is
poorly defined. Consider using the killall, pkill, and pgrep commands
instead."
There is probably a minor error in the build because they have the option
--enable-skill build skill and snice
but they build skill by default.
Using --prefix= is not enough. We would need to use --mandir and
--docdir. This seems to work for me:
{{{
./configure --prefix=
--mandir=/usr/share/man
--docdir=/usr/share/doc/procps-ng-3.3.6
--disable-skill
}}}
I'm in the middle of of a full build, but will test the executables when
I'm done.
Matt, What do you think?
