Building eudev
|
||||
===================
|
||||
|
||||
The following instructions provide the steps needed to acquire and build the eudev
|
||||
software on the Debian, Devuan, and compatible Linux distributions.
|
||||
|
||||
Please note that command examples in this document use the following convention. Commands
|
||||
prefixed by a "$" symbol are to be run as a regular, user. Commands with a "#" prefix
|
||||
need to be run as the root user. If your user has sudo access then sudo may be
|
||||
used instead of logging into the root account.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
1. Installing dependencies
|
||||
============================
|
||||
|
||||
The first thing we need to do is install the dependencies required to build eudev.
|
||||
This can be accomplished by running the following two commands:
|
||||
|
||||
# apt-get update
|
||||
|
||||
# apt-get install build-essential pkg-config docbook-xsl\
|
||||
docbook-xml m4 automake autoconf intltool gperf\
|
||||
gnu-efi libcap-dev libselinux1-dev libacl1-dev\
|
||||
libkmod-dev libblkid-dev gobject-introspection\
|
||||
libglib-object-introspection-perl xsltproc
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
2. Downloading the source code
|
||||
================================
|
||||
|
||||
There are two common approaches to downloading the project's source code. The first
|
||||
is to visit the eudev GitHub releases page (https://github.com/eudev-project/eudev/releases)
|
||||
and downloading the latest tar.gz archive file. Then unpack the downloaded archive. For
|
||||
example, if we downloaded eudev version 3.2.10 we could unpack the archive using the
|
||||
following command:
|
||||
|
||||
$ tar xf eudev-3.2.10.tar.gz
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Alternatively, we can download the latest source code by using git. This is probably the
|
||||
better option for developers. Here we install the git source control program and
|
||||
use it to download the latest eudev source code:
|
||||
|
||||
# apt-get install git
|
||||
|
||||
$ git clone https://github.com/eudev-project/eudev.git
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
3. Configuring and building eudev
|
||||
==================================
|
||||
|
||||
To build the eudev source code, run the following commands:
|
||||
|
||||
$ cd eudev
|
||||
|
||||
$ ./autogen.sh
|
||||
|
||||
$ ./configure
|
||||
|
||||
Please note that, by default, the configure script will assume we want to place
|
||||
eudev under the /usr directory. If this is not accurate, we can supply an alternative
|
||||
location using the "--prefix" flag. For instance, to place eudev under the /usr/local
|
||||
directory tree, run the following:
|
||||
|
||||
$ ./configure --prefix /usr/local
|
||||
|
||||
Once eudev has been configured we can then perform the build.
|
||||
|
||||
$ make
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
4. Install eudev
|
||||
=================
|
||||
|
||||
Please note that, in most situations, people will not wish to install eudev manually.
|
||||
This work is typically performed by your distribution's package manager. Installing
|
||||
eudev manually can break your operating system.
|
||||
|
||||
If you really wish to proceed and install eudev manually, you can do so by running:
|
||||
|
||||
# make install
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
5. Removing eudev
|
||||
==================
|
||||
|
||||
Please note that removing eudev can damage your system.
|
||||
|
||||
If you wish to remove eudev from yoru system you can do so by running the
|
||||
following command:
|
||||
|
||||
# make uninstall

BUILD INSTRUCTIONS
|
||||
|
||||
To build eudev, first install any required dependencies. The dependencies for eudev's build process and how to install them are listed in the BUILD file. Then download the eudev source code and perform the following commands:
|
||||
|
||||
$ ./autogen.sh
|
||||
$ ./configure
|
||||
$ make
|
||||
|
||||
Optionally, eudev can be installed by running
|
||||
|
||||
$ sudo make install
|
||||
|
||||
And removed by running
|
||||
|
||||
$ sudo make uninstall
|
||||
|
||||
For further details on building and install eudev, please see the BUILD file.

BACKGROUND INFORMATION
|
||||
|
||||
This git repo is a fork of git://anongit.freedesktop.org/systemd/systemd
|
||||
with the aim of isolating udev from any particular flavor of system
|
||||
initialization. In this case, the isolation is from systemd.
|
||||
|
||||
This is a project started by Gentoo developers and testing is currently being
|
||||
done mostly on OpenRC. We welcome contribution from others using a variety of
|
||||
system initializations to ensure eudev remains system initialization and
|
||||
distribution neutral.

## Build status

[](https://travis-ci.org/gentoo/eudev)ADOPTION NOTICE (2021-09-14)
|
||||
|
||||
Currently eudev is in the process of being adopted by a newly formed project by Alpine, Devuan and Gentoo contributors (a-z order). Some of the below links and/or contacts may be outdated until the process is complete and all the infra set up.

||||

IMPORTANT DEPRECATION NOTICE (2021-08-20)
|
||||
|
||||
Currently eudev is no longer being supported. Eudev was started, in
|
||||
part because systemd did not build on musl-libc systems and a fork
|
||||
of the udev portion of systemd was required. Currently systemd can
|
||||
be built on musl systems with patches from the openembedded team, and
|
||||
the need to maintain a separate fork is no longer pressing.
|
||||
|
||||
Nonetheless, many distros have adopted eudev as their device manager
|
||||
and so may want to continue using it. Anyone interested in inheriting
|
||||
the repo may contact me at blueness@gentoo.org.
