Because we are going to install versions different to the ones in the repositories | Because we are going to install versions different to the ones in the repositories I recommend to install FG-2.4.0 and/or GIT in a place independent of the base system such as /usr/local/FG-2.4.0, /opt/FG-2.4.0 or in a subdirectory of your $HOME. I suggest to make it writeable by the user so there is no need to become root for the <code>make install</code> commands. I'll use <code>$prefix</code> as a placeholder for this directory. <br /> | ||
Another one will be <code>$srcdir</code>, it stands for the absolute path to the directory which is supposed to keep the folders of the various source codes. So, in the following instructions, you have to replace these with the local paths or even <code>export</code> them during the process. | Another one will be <code>$srcdir</code>, it stands for the absolute path to the directory which is supposed to keep the folders of the various source codes.
