   Note:

   The definitive list of dependenciese can always be seen by looking at the GitHub Actions workflow file here:

   • .github/workflows/build.yaml

2. Checkout the source code:

   $ git clone https://github.com/jamesodhunt/procenv
   $ cd procenv

3. Configure and build:

   $ autoreconf -fi && ./configure
   $ make && make check && sudo make install

   Note:

   For BSD systems, replace make with gmake above to ensure you run using GNU Make (BSD make will hang at the test stage!)

Build snap package

$ git clone https://github.com/jamesodhunt/procenv
$ cd procenv
$ snapcraft

Build on FreeBSD

FreeBSD is awkward. This worked for me on FreeBSD 10.2:

$ gmake CC=clang-devel LD=ld.gold LDFLAGS='-v -fuse-ld=gold'

Build on Minix

Try this:

$ ./configure CC=clang CFLAGS='-I/usr/pkg/include' LDFLAGS='-L/usr/pkg/lib'
