The Make package contains a program for compiling packages.
Prepare Make for compilation:
./configure --prefix=/tools --without-guile
The meaning of the configure option:
--without-guile
This ensures that Make-4.1 won't link against Guile libraries, which may be present on the host system, but won't be available within the chroot environment in the next chapter.
Compile the package:
make
Compilation is now complete. As discussed earlier, running the test suite is not mandatory for the temporary tools here in this chapter. To run the Make test suite anyway, issue the following command:
make check
Install the package:
make install
