<title>Installation of Gawk</title>

<para>Warning: do NOT run <userinput>make uninstall</userinput> on this
package if you apply the <emphasis>sed</emphasis> fix to change the
<filename class="directory">libexec</filename> directory definition. The
<emphasis>uninstall</emphasis> rule in the <filename>Makefile</filename>
file runs a command like <userinput>rm -rf
&lt;libexecdir&gt;/*</userinput> Since we change the <filename
class="directory">libexec</filename> directory to <filename
class="directory">/usr/bin</filename> it'll run <userinput>rm -rf
/usr/bin/*</userinput></para>

<para>Install Gawk by running the following commands:</para>
