C2110 UNIX and programming Lesson 13 / Module 2 -5Armagetron,
Procedure I
We do everything in scratch.1) Unpacking the archive:
$ tar xvf armagetronad-0.2.9.1.0.tbz
2) Create an installation directory, i.e., where the program will be installed (required if you do
not have root permission)
$ mkdir armagetronad
$ pwd
/scratch/kulhanek/game/armagetronad
3) Changing the working directory to the extracted archive:
$ cd armagetronad-0.2.9.1.0
4) Configuration for compilation and installation:
$ ./configure --prefix=/scratch/kulhanek/game/armagetronad \
-disable-etc -disable-uninstall
At this stage, some libraries or applications may be missing. These can either be installed in a similar
way. However, it is more convenient (and faster) to ask the administrator to install them. For
compilation, it is necessary to install development packages of individual libraries.
E.g: # apt-get install libxml2-dev
where program will be installed

Procedure II
5) Compilation
$ make
6) Installation
$ make install
7) Starting the program
$ cd /scratch/kulhanek/game/armagetronad
$ bin/armagetronad
where program is installed
