Preparing a Linux Build Machine

Most linux machines do not contain the right mix of libraries by default, so we build them.

Core Client: Debian Woody
Manager: Fedora Core 3

Benchmark files: Should be compiled by the latest GCC compiler, and then copied to the Debian Woody machine for the link step.

zLib 1.2.3

[root@localhost zlib-1.2.3]# ./configure --prefix=/usr
[root@localhost zlib-1.2.3]# make
[root@localhost zlib-1.2.3]# make install

OpenSSL 0.9.8e

[root@localhost openssl-0.9.8e]# ./config  --prefix=/usr --openssldir=/usr/local/ssl
[root@localhost openssl-0.9.8e]# make

[root@localhost openssl-0.9.8e]# make install

cURL 7.16.2
