For MSYS2 / CygWin User |
| 70 |
|
================== |
| 71 |
|
Installation of LBBS on MSYS2 is similar to the above steps for Linux, except that: |
| 72 |
|
|
| 73 |
|
1) Use additional config switches to keep compatible with the MSYS2 / CygWin environment. |
| 74 |
|
./configure --prefix=$LBBS_HOME_DIR --with-mariadb --without-epoll --without-sysv |
| 75 |
|
|
| 76 |
|
2) Skip those steps not supported by Cygwin (e.g. systemd and logrotate). |
