Hi friends,

./configure ::Tell you everything missing or failed in linux

When trying to compile something from source in linux, there may be lots of dependencies missing.

Running the ./configure command will only tell you one missing dependency. Then you must run ./configure again, install another missing dependency, run it again and so on.

However, u can make ./configure tell you everything that it's missing or failed, running it only once.

For this, use the following command:

./configure -n > config.txt

Then check the config.txt file for all the lines that say no, missing, or failed.

The -n will run configure but nothing will actually be changed. U can also use ./configure -h - it will give you the options.

Thanks,
Rijus.
