README.install

1) Build the PLFS library and supporting tools.

   0) In order to build the tools that work with fuse, you'll need to have fuse
      installed and have /dev/libfuse loaded.
   1) cmake .
      Please see cmake -LAH for all of the options available. If any headers
      have been installed in non-standard locations you can set 
      CMAKE_INCLUDE_PATH to make them discoverable when building.
      If you want a release build run cmake with -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release 
      and if you want a debug build run with -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug
      To install in a non-default location run cmake with 
      -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/desired/install/path
      Out of tree builds are recommended to keep the source tree clean. To
      do an out of tree build create a build directory somewhere then run
      cmake as usual but instead of "cmake [cmake flags] ." use
      "cmake [cmake flags] /path/to/plfs/src" from within your build dir.
   2) make
   3) make install
      The default installation path is /usr/local.
   4) Add the paths to the PLFS binaries to PATH. If using the default install
      path, then /usr/local/bin and /usr/local/sbin need to be added to PATH.
      PLFS's lib directory can also be added to LD_LIBRARY_PATH. The default
      is /usr/local/lib. It may also be useful to add PLFS's man pages to
      MANPATH. The default is /usr/local/share/man.
   ### IMPORTANT ###
   5) All PLFS installations need a valid plfsrc file. Please see the plfsrc
      man page located by default in /usr/local/share/man/man5. Please note
      that the plfsrc file format has changed as of version 2.4. Any old plfsrc
      files not in the new YAML format need to be edited to conform to the new
      standard before upgrading to PLFS 2.4 or above. By default PLFS will look
      for a plfsrc file in $HOME/.plfsrc and /etc/plfsrc. You can also set
      the PLFSRC environment variable to point to a plfsrc file.
   6) Check your plfsrc file with plfs_check_config (located in the bin
      directory in the PLFS source tree after running make or in the
      installation directory's bin directory).

2) To install PLFS as a ROMIO ADIO layer for MPI-IO.

  Please see mpi_adio/README.patching for instructions on getting PLFS
  to work as a ROMIO ADIO layer.
