6 How to install Midnight Commander (MC) and required glib
11 I like to use Midnight Commander for a file manager, which works
12 in both terminals and X.
14 Download Midnight Commander 4.5.55
15 http://www.ibiblio.org/pub/Linux/utils/file/managers/mc/mc-4.5.55.tar.gz
17 Download glib 1.2.10 (not the 1.3 versions)
18 ftp://ftp.gtk.org/pub/gtk/v1.2/glib-1.2.10.tar.gz
20 Unpack glib-1.2.10 and change to its directory.
22 I put all newly installed packages (nonstandard lfs) in /usr/local, so
23 that's where these will be installed.
25 To install glib: (run as root)
28 rm -rf /install-prefix/include/glib.h /install-prefix/include/gmodule.h &&
31 Then type ldconfig (to allow the libraries to be found)
32 If you installed in /usr/local as I did, edit your PATH:
34 export PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/bin
36 Unpack mc-4.5.55 and change to its directory
39 ./configure --with-ncurses &&
