Explanation
- This script configures the source code for the system, checking for dependencies, environment variables, and the system architecture to prepare for the compilation make - This command compiles the source code into binaries. It uses the Makefile (generated by ./configure) to create the necessary build files. make install - This command installs the compiled binaries and other necessary files to their appropriate locations on the system (e.g., /usr/local/bin). This sequence (./configure, make, make install) is the standard way to install software from source in Linux.
