4.24. SRC - The fli4l Buildroot
This chapter is mainly of interest for developers, who want to compile binaries or the Linux
kernel for the fli4l. If you only want to use flil4 as a router and do not offer packages for the
fli4l needing own binaries, you may skip this chapter completely.
In general, for compiling program packages for the fli4l a Linux system is required. Com-
pilation under other operating systems (Microsoft Windows, OS X, FreeBSD, etc.) is not
supported.
The requirements for a Linux system for fli4l development are as follows:
• GNU gcc and g++ in version 2.95 or higher
• GNU binutils (contain bind and other necessary programs)
• GNU make in version 3.81 or higher
• GNU bash
• The programs sed, awk, which, flex, bison and patch
• The programs makeinfo (Package texinfo) and msgfmt (Package gettext)
• The programs tar, cpio, gzip, bzip2 and unzip
• The programs wget, rsync, svn and git
