关于tar安装的问题

qtc521

今天下载了一个vlc-0.8.1.tar.gz媒体播放器
解压tar zxf vlc-0.8.1.tar.gz之后
然后./configure ;make;make install

[root@liupeng vlc-0.8.1]# ./configure ;make;make install

有好长一串安装好之后怎么运行这个软件啊

Be cautious, you should only login as root for administrative works.  As a rule of thumb, you should compile the package by a normal user and then install it as root. i.e.

As normal user:
$./configure && make

As root:
#make install

I haven't used vlc before but as it uses automake, the installation should be generic.  If you do not specify --prefix in ./configure, the default prefix (installation path) is usually /usr/local.  As a result, your compiled binaries should be installed to /usr/local/bin

So, type:

cd /usr/local/bin
ls -thr

You should able to see the latest binary (or binaries) at the bottom.  I think it is something like vlc or vlc-xxxxxx.

If /usr/local/bin is already in your search PATH, then you can run vlc in any directory.

Clear?

我改变了INSTALL的权限
运行它,但是又出现一个问题
checking mad.h usability... no
checking mad.h presence... no
checking for mad.h... no
configure: error: Could not find libmad on your system: you may get it from http://www.underbit.com/products/mad/. Alternatively you can use --disable-mad to disable the mad plugin.
./INSTALL: line 46: unexpected EOF while looking for matching `''
./INSTALL: line 68: syntax error: unexpected end of file

缺库

是不是要完全安装啊?

It also says:

Alternatively you can use --disable-mad to disable the mad plugin.

i.e. you can do add --disable-mad to configure, I mean

./configure --disable-mad

So, either install the mad package prior to vlc, or disable the mad plugin during configure.

楼上的给的详细解法，我的太笼统了。
