Configure options for the TeX Live (TL) build system
=====================================================
The TL 2009 build system contains a collection of program packages, i.e.,
subdirectories texk/Prog/ (where `Prog' is web2c, afm2pl, bibtex8, etc.) and
utils/Util/ (where `Util' is dialog, pdfopen, etc.) as well as library
packages, i.e., subdirectories texk/kpathsea/ and libs/Lib/ (where `Lib' is
zlib, libpng, t1lib, etc.) for most of the libraries required by the program
packages. Correspondingly there are plenty of configure options, most of
them described below. See 'configure --help' (at the top-level) for an
exhaustive list of all global options and a few important package specific
ones or run, e.g., 'texk/lcdf-typetools/configure --help' to also see
lcdf-typetools specific options not shown at the top-level.
Note, however, that the ./Build script invokes the top-level configure with
a few additional options. Any defaults discussed below are those for the
configure script, invoking configure from ./Build yields different results.
Options explicitly specified on the command will never be modified.
1. Global configure options
===========================
1.1. --disable-native-texlive-build
-----------------------------------
If enabled (by default) build for a TeX Live binary distribution such as
the TL2009 DVD-Rom; this implies '--enable-multiplatform' and
'--enable-cxx-runtime-hack' unless they are explicitly disabled.
Building TL for a Linux or other distribution, this would be disabled and
system versions of most libraries would be used (see below).
1.2. --enable-multiplatform
---------------------------
If enabled, install executables and libraries in platform dependent
subdirectories of EPREFIX/bin and EPREFIX/lib (unless '--bindir=DIR' or
'--libdir=DIR' is specified). This option automatically propagates the
values for bindir and libdir to all subdirectories to be configured, and
thus need not be used explicitly in any program or library package.
1.3. --enable-cxx-runtime-hack
------------------------------
If enabled and when using gcc, try to statically link with libstc++,
somewhat improving portability.
1.4. --disable-largefile
------------------------
Omit support for large files (>=2GB).
1.5. --without-x
----------------
Do not use the X Window System.
2. Configure options for program packages
=========================================
2.1. --disable-Prog and --disable-Util
--------------------------------------
Do not build and install the program(s) of the package `Prog' or `Util'.
2.2. --disable-all-pkgs
-----------------------
Do not build any program packages, except those explicitly enabled. Without
this options all packages are built except those explicitly disabled (except
for utils/xindy/ which is disabled by default due to its requirement for
clisp and others).
2.3. Configure options for texk/web2c/
--------------------------------------
2.3.1. --with-tex-banner=STR
Specify the version string STR appended to banner lines, replacing the current
default `Web2C 2009'; the string STR must contain the current Web2C version.
The Build script for a TL native build currently uses the default
`--with-tex-banner="TeX Live 2009"', whereas when buildind for a distro one
might specify, e.g., `--with-tex-banner="TeX Live 2009/Debian"'
2.3.1. --with-editor=CMD
Specify the command CMD to invoke from the `e' option, replacing the default
`vi +%d %s'.
2.3.3. --enable-auto-core
This option causes TeX & MF to produce a core dump when a particular
filename is encountered.
2.3.4. --disable-dump-share
Make the fmt/base/mem dump files architecture dependend (somewhat faster
on little-endian architectures).
2.3.5. --disable-ipc
If enabled (by default) allow TeX's '--ipc' option.
2.3.6. --disable-tex, --enable-etex, --disable-aleph, --disable-pdftex,
--disable-luatex, --disable-xetex, --disable-mf, --disable-mp
Do or do not build the various TeX, METAFONT, and MetaPost engines.
2.3.7. --with-mf-x-toolkit
Use the X toolkit (libXt) for METAFONT (default is yes).
2.3.8. --enable-*win
Include various types of window support for METAFONT.
2.3.9. --disable-mf-nowin
Do not build a separate non-windows-capable METAFONT.
2.3.10. --disable-web-progs
Do not build the WEB programs bibtex ... weave, e.g., when you just have to
rebuid some engines.
2.3.11. --disable-omfonts
Build the Web2C versions of the omega font utilies (ofm2opl, opl2ofm,
ovf2ovp, and ovp2ovf) instead of the C version omfonts.
2.4. Configure options for texk/xdvik/
--------------------------------------
2.4.1. --with-gs=PATH
Hardwire the location of GhostScript (gs).
2.4.2. --with-xdvi-x-toolkit=KIT
Use toolkit KIT (motif/xaw/xaw3d/neXtaw) for xdvi, default: Motif if
available, else Xaw.
3. Configure options for libraries
==================================
3.1. --with-system-Lib
----------------------
Use an installed (system) version of the library `Lib'; this option exists
for most but not all libraries.
For many libraries there are in addition '--with-Lib-includes=DIR' and
'--with-Lib-libdir=DIR' to indicate that the library is installed in an
unusual location.
The top-level configure script performs a consistency check for all
required system libraries and bails out early if one these tests fails.
3.2. Configure options for libfontconfig
----------------------------------------
Building XeTeX and xdvipdfmx on non-Mac systems requires libfontconfig.
3.2.1. --with-fontconfig-includes=DIR, --with-fontconfig-libdir=DIR
If one or both of these options are given, the flags are derived from them.
Otherwise, the flags are determined via pkg-config (if present).
3.3. Configure options for system libfreetype
---------------------------------------------
The flags for a system freetype library are determined via freetype-config.
3.4. Configure options for libpoppler
-------------------------------------
3.4.1. --with-system-xpdf
Use libpoppler instead of xpdf (and pkg-config to obtain the required flags).
4. Important VAR=value configure arguments
==========================================
Used instead of searching for programs in PATH.
4.1. FT2_CONFIG=/path/to/freetype-config
----------------------------------------
For system freetype2 library.
4.2. PKG_CONFIG=/path/to/pkg-config
-----------------------------------
For fontconfig and system xpdf (poppler) libraries.
4.3. CLISP=/path/to/clisp
-------------------------
For xindy.
4.4. PERL=/path/to/perl
-------------------------
To build xindy rules and docs.
4.5. LATEX=/path/to/latex
-------------------------
To build xindy rules.
4.6. PDFLATEX=/path/to/pdflatex
-------------------------------
To build xindy docs.
4.7. KPSEWHICH=/path/to/kpsewhich
---------------------------------
For 'make check'.
