Run the following commands to build it: mkdir build pushd build ../configure --disable-bzlib \ --disable-libseccomp \ --disable-xzlib \ --disable-zlib make popd The meaning of the new configure option: --disable-* The configuration script attempts to use some packages from the host distribution if the corresponding library files exist. It may cause compilation failure if a library file exists, but the corresponding header files do not. These options prevent using these unneeded capabilities from the host. Prepare File for compilation: ./configure --prefix=/usr --host=$LFS_TGT --build=$(./config.guess) Compile the package: make FILE_COMPILE=$(pwd)/build/src/file Install the package: make DESTDIR=$LFS install Move a shared library into its final location in the LFS system, and recreate the symlink for it: mv -v $LFS/usr/lib/libmagic.so.* $LFS/lib ln -sfv ../../lib/$(readlink /usr/lib/libmagic.so) $LFS/usr/lib/libmagic.so <para>Details on this package are located in <xref linkend="contents-file" role="."/></para> </sect2> </sect1>
