<title>Installation of Gettext</title>

<para>Prepare Gettext for compilation:</para>

<screen><userinput>./configure --prefix=/tools</userinput></screen>

<para>Compile the programs:</para>

<screen><userinput>make</userinput></screen>

<para>(If you insist on testing the results, then issue: <userinput>make
check</userinput>. This takes a very long time, around 7 SBUs. Moreover, the
Gettext test suite is known to experience failures under certain host
conditions -- for example when it finds a Java compiler on the host (but an
experimental patch to disable Java is available from the LFS Patches
project).)</para>

<para>And install the package:</para>

<screen><userinput>make install</userinput></screen>
