make

Install the package: 

make install

Multilib

This package does not install any libraries so only one installation is needed.

32Bit

Compile the package: 

CC="gcc ${BUILD32}" USE_ARCH=32 \
PKG_CONFIG_PATH="$PKG_CONFIG_PATH32" \
./configure --prefix=/usr &&
make

Install the package: 

make install

N32

Compile the package: 

CC="gcc ${BUILDN32}" USE_ARCH=n32 \
PKG_CONFIG_PATH="$PKG_CONFIG_PATHN32" \
./configure --prefix=/usr &&
make

Install the package: 

make install

64Bit

Compile the package: 

CC="gcc ${BUILD64}" USE_ARCH=64 \
PKG_CONFIG_PATH="$PKG_CONFIG_PATH64" \
./configure --prefix=/usr &&
make

Install the package: 

make install
