Introduction to bc
The bc package contains an arbitrary precision numeric processing language.
Dependencies
Non-Multilib
Compile the package:
sed -i '/PROTO.*readline/d' bc/scan.l && sed -i '/flex -I8/s/8//' configure && sed -i '/stdlib/a #include <string.h>' lib/number.c && sed -i 's/program.*save/static &/' bc/load.c && ./configure --prefix=/usr --with-readline && make
Install the package
make install
Command Explanations
sed -i '/PROTO.*readline/d' bc/scan.l: This command fixes the Readline library call.
sed -i '/flex -I8/s/8//' configure: This command fixes the Flex invocation.
sed -i '/stdlib/a #include <string.h>' lib/number.c: This command inserts a missing header.
sed -i 's/program.*save/static &/' bc/load.c: This command fixes a segfault when running bc with bc -l.
--with-readline: This option enables Readline support in interactive mode.
Multilib
This package does not provide any libraries so only one installation is needed.
32Bit
Compile the package:
sed -i '/PROTO.*readline/d' bc/scan.l && sed -i '/flex -I8/s/8//' configure && sed -i '/stdlib/a #include <string.h>' lib/number.c && sed -i 's/program.*save/static &/' bc/load.c && CC="gcc ${BUILD32}" ./configure --prefix=/usr --with-readline && make
Install the package
make install
N32
Compile the package:
sed -i '/PROTO.*readline/d' bc/scan.l && sed -i '/flex -I8/s/8//' configure && sed -i '/stdlib/a #include <string.h>' lib/number.c && sed -i 's/program.*save/static &/' bc/load.c && CC="gcc ${BUILDN32}" ./configure --prefix=/usr --with-readline && make
Install the package
make install
64Bit
Compile the package:
sed -i '/PROTO.*readline/d' bc/scan.l && sed -i '/flex -I8/s/8//' configure && sed -i '/stdlib/a #include <string.h>' lib/number.c && sed -i 's/program.*save/static &/' bc/load.c && CC="gcc ${BUILD64}" ./configure --prefix=/usr --with-readline && make
Install the package
make install
