make &amp;&amp;
cd ../abiword-plugins &amp;&amp;
sed -i 's:python2.3:python2.4:g' configure &amp;&amp;
./configure --prefix=/usr --without-inter7eps &amp;&amp;
make &amp;&amp;
cd ../abi</userinput></screen>
<para>This package does not come with a test suite.</para>
<para>Now, as the <systemitem class="username">root</systemitem> user:</para>
<screen role="root"><userinput>make install &amp;&amp;
cp -v -rf docs /usr/share/AbiSuite-2.2/AbiWord &amp;&amp;

<para>Build the help files by issuing the following commands as an
unprivileged user:</para>
<screen><userinput>cd ../abiword-docs &amp;&amp;
./make-html.sh</userinput></screen>
<para>Then, as the <systemitem class="username">root</systemitem> user,
install the help files:</para>
<screen role="root"><userinput>install -v -m644 man/abiword.1 /usr/share/man/man1 &amp;&amp;

<title>Command Explanations</title>
<para><command>sed -i 's:python2.3:python2.4:g' configure</command>: This
command changes the version of <application>Python</application> that
<application>AbiWord</application> looks for.</para>
<para><parameter>--without-inter7eps</parameter>: Some of the headers from
the <application>EPS</application> package are not compatible with
<application>GCC</application>-4.0.x. This parameter prevents linking to
the package and incurring a build failure.</para>
<para><command>./make-html.sh</command>: This command creates the HTML files
used by <application>AbiWord</application> when help is requested from the
main menu.</para>
