36 How to install 36 How to install
37 ============== 37 ==============
38 38
39 Please see the INSTALL file in this directory. 39 Please see the INSTALL file in this directory for the generic instructions
40 on how to use configure. The following short summary describes the mailutils-
41 specific configuration options:
42
43 --enable-debug
44
45 Compile mailutils with debugging support. This disables compiler
46 optimizations and adds debugging information to the binaries.
47
48 --disable-pam
49
50 Do not build PAM support. By default configure will build PAM support
51 if the host system supports it. Use this option to suppress this
52 behaviour.
53
54 --disable-pthread
55
56 Do not build thread-safe libraries.
57
58 --enable-mysql
59
60 Enable support for authentication via MySQL. Note that depending
61 on how your MySQL system is installed, this may require adding
62 appropriate directories to the library and include paths, e.g.:
63
64 ./configure LIBS='-L/usr/local/mysql/lib' \
65 CPPLAGS='-I/usr/local/mysql/include' --enable-mysql
66
67 --enable-virtual-domains
68
69 Enable support for authentication using virtual mail domains.
70 Note that this is also needed if you wish to run testsuites for
71 pop3d and imap4d daemons. The following option controls where
72 exactly the domain database should be located:
73
74 --with-virtual-pwddir=DIR
75
76 Use DIR instead of $sysconfdir/domain as the location of
77 virtual mail domain database.
78
79 --without-readline
80
81 Build 'mail' without readline support.
82
83 --with-gssapi
84
85 Enable GSSAPI authentication. For this to work, you will have
86 to have Kerberos V installed on your system.
87
88 --without-guile
89
90 Do not build guile interface library.
91
92 --with-mail-rc=FILE
93
94 Set the location of the system-wide configuration file for mail
95 utility. FILE must be an absolute filename specification. Default
96 is $sysconfdir/mail.rc
97
98 --with-mail-spool=PATH
99
100 Override the location of the mailspool. The default value depends
101 on the system. Usually it is either /var/spool/mail or /var/mail.
102
103 --with-gdbm
104
105 Use GDBM
106
107 --with-db2
108
109 Use Berkeley DB
110
111 --with-ndbm
112
113 Use NDBM
114
115 --with-dbm
116
117 Use old DBM
118
119 --with-log-facility=facility
120
121 Enable logging to the given syslog facility. Default is `mail'.
122
123 --without-included-regex
124
125 Don't compile regex; this is the default on systems with version
126 2 of the GNU C library (use with caution on other systems)
