23 <para>Prepare Automake for compilation:</para>
25 <screen><userinput>./configure --prefix=/usr</userinput></screen>
27 <para>Compile the package:</para>
29 <screen><userinput>make</userinput></screen>
31 <para>This package has a test suite available which performs a number of 
32 checks to ensure it will function correctly. It's worth noting that Automake
33 does not play a critical role in the overall operation of an LFS system. In 
34 addition, the Automake test suite runs for quite a long period of time. 
35 Accordingly, the running of the test suite here is not crucial. Should you 
36 choose to run the Automake test suite, the following command will do 
37 so:</para>
39 <screen><userinput>make check</userinput></screen>
