Install Make by running the following commands:
./configure --prefix=/usr && make && make install && chgrp root /usr/bin/make && chmod 755 /usr/bin/make |
By default /usr/bin/make is installed setgid kmem. This is needed on some systems so it can check the load average by using /dev/kmem. However, on Linux systems, setgid kmem is not needed, so we remove this from our make binary. This also fixes problems with the make ignoring certain variables like LD_LIBRARY_PATH.
make
make determines automatically which pieces of a large program need to be recompiled, and issues the commands to recompile them.
