Node:Additional Configuration Options, Next:Configuration Philosophy, Previous:Quick Installation, Up:Unix Installation
There are several additional options you may use on the configure
command line when compiling gawk from scratch, including:
--enable-portals
/p as BSD portal files when doing two-way I/O with
the |& operator
(see Using gawk with BSD Portals).
--with-included-gettext
gettext library that comes with gawk.
This option should be used on systems that do not use version 2 (or later)
of the GNU C library.
All known modern GNU/Linux systems use Glibc 2. Use this option on any other system.
--disable-nls
--with-included-gettext
doesn't work on your system.
