<title>Installation of Gawk</title>

<para>When installing Gawk using glibc-2.1.x on your base system,
it may be necessary to use a fix to prevent a variable name conflict. The
following commands can be used in this case.  Note that these commands
can also be used for other glibc versions so if you aren't sure, then
use the first version.</para>

<para><screen><userinput>cd awklib &amp;&amp;
cp Makefile.in Makefile.in.backup &amp;&amp;
sed -e '/^datadir/s/awk/gawk/' \
-e '/^libexecdir/s%/awk%%' Makefile.in.backup &gt; Makefile.in &amp;&amp;
cd .. &amp;&amp;
export CPPFLAGS=-Dre_max_failures=re_max_failures2 &amp;&amp;
./configure --prefix=$LFS/usr --disable-nls &amp;&amp;
unset CPPFLAGS &amp;&amp;
make LDFLAGS=-static &amp;&amp;
make install</userinput></screen></para>

<para>If you are using a newer glibc version (2.2.x), you can use the
following commands to install Gawk:</para>

<para><screen><userinput>cd awklib &amp;&amp;
cp Makefile.in Makefile.in.backup &amp;&amp;
sed -e '/^datadir/s/awk/gawk/' \
-e '/^libexecdir/s%/awk%%' Makefile.in.backup &gt; Makefile.in &amp;&amp;
cd .. &amp;&amp;
./configure --prefix=$LFS/usr --disable-nls &amp;&amp;
make LDFLAGS=-static &amp;&amp;
make install</userinput></screen></para>
