<title>Command Explanations</title>
<para><parameter>--sysconfdir=/etc</parameter>: This parameter puts the
pktloc and classid files in <filename class="directory">/etc/libnl</filename>
which is their conventional location and recommended if you are building
this package to enable <application>NetworkManager</application> on a
desktop. If you are building this package for other reasons, you might
prefer to use <parameter>--sysconfdir=/var/lib</parameter> so that these
files, which are not expected to be edited, are placed in
<filename class="directory">/var/lib/nl</filename>. The default for a
build with prefix <filename class="directory">/usr</filename> is, of course,
to create a directory <filename class="directory">/usr/etc</filename> which
is not desirable.</para>
<para><option>--enable-static=no</option>: This switch prevents the static
libraries being installed.</para>
