%general-entities; ]> Procps The following sed stops the Makefile from trying to install binaries owned by root and prevents ldconfig from being run. cp -v Makefile{,.orig} sed -e "/^install :=/s/--owner 0 --group 0//" \ -e "/^ldconfig :=/s/= ldconfig/=/" Makefile.orig > Makefile Compile the package: make Install the package: make DESTDIR=${CLFS} lib64=lib install lib64=lib By default, procps will attempt to install into /lib64 if it exists, even if the package is not built 64-bit. This option forces procps to install its libraries into /lib instead.
