<title>Installation of Bash</title>
<para>Before you attempt to install Bash, you have to check to make sure
your distribution has the <filename>/usr/lib/libcurses.a</filename> and
<filename>/usr/lib/libncurses.a</filename> files. If both of the files
are missing, you have to install the ncurses development package. This
package is often call something like <emphasis>ncurses-dev</emphasis>.</para>
<para>If this package is already installed, or you just did it, check
for the two files again. Often the <filename>libcurses.a</filename> file
is (still) missing. If so, then create <filename>libcurses.a</filename>
as a symlink by running the following commands:</para>
<para><screen><userinput>cd /usr/lib &&</userinput>
<userinput>ln -s libncurses.a libcurses.a</userinput></screen></para>
<para>Now we can continue. Install Bash by running the following
commands:</para>
<para><screen><userinput>./configure --enable-static-link --prefix=$LFS/usr \</userinput>
<userinput> --bindir=$LFS/bin --with-curses &&</userinput>
<userinput>make &&</userinput>
<userinput>make install &&</userinput>
<userinput>cd $LFS/bin &&</userinput>
<userinput>ln -sf bash sh</userinput></screen></para>
<para>If the make install phase ends with something along the lines of</para>
<blockquote><screen>install-info: unknown option `--dir-file=/mnt/lfs/usr/info/dir'
usage: install-info [--version] [--help] [--debug] [--maxwidth=nnn]
[--section regexp title] [--infodir=xxx] [--align=nnn]
[--calign=nnn] [--quiet] [--menuentry=xxx]
[--info-dir=xxx]
[--keep-old] [--description=xxx] [--test]
[--remove] [--] filename
make[1]: *** [install] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/mnt/lfs/usr/src/bash-&bash-version;/doc'
make: [install] Error 2 (ignored)</screen></blockquote>
<para>then that means that you are probably using Debian, and that you have an
old version of the texinfo package. This error is not severe by any means: the
info pages will be installed when we recompile bash dynamically in
chapter 6, so you can ignore it. You do, however, have to run the last
two commands manually (the <userinput>cd $LFS/bin</userinput> and
<userinput>ln -sf bash sh</userinput> commands) because they won't be
executed when the error occurs.</para>
