Run the following commands:
make
make html
make man
lynx doc/iputils.html
# Read...
If the first make
fails, no problems:
make html
lynx doc/iputils.html
Read section "Installation notes"...
But if make html
fails too, check that DocBook package is installed
on your machine. If it is installed, and make
does not work nevertheless,
please [open an issue on github.com]
(https://github.com/iputils/iputils/issues/new).
There's no configure
option to install into a prefix. Use the DESTDIR
make
variable to change the installation target. There's no support for
picking up build dependencies in a prefix.
