Create a directory for building the software
The software will be installed to the ~/build/inst/ directory. The resulting tree will eventually look like:
~
build/
libquvi-scripts-$RELEASE/ -- extracted source code
libquvi-$RELEASE/ -- extracted source code
quvi-$RELEASE/ -- extracted source code
inst/ -- installed files/binaries
tar/ -- downloaded tarballs
Begin by creating the build directory:
$ mkdir -p ~/build/{inst,tar}
The remaining directories (under “build”) will be created later. Export the destination path:
$ export DEST=`pwd`/inst
The steps will make use of this environment variable throughout the installation.
