|

|
-Several options allow to control the behavior of bootstrap:
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- --gnulib-srcdir=DIRNAME Specify the local directory where gnulib
|
|
|
- sources reside. Use this if you already
|
|
|
- have gnulib sources on your machine, and
|
|
|
- do not want to waste your bandwidth dowloading
|
|
|
- them again.

|
|
- do not want to waste your bandwidth dowloading

|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- --cvs-auth=METHOD Set the CVS access method used for downloading
|
|
|
- gnulib files. METHOD is one of the keywords
|
|
|
- accepted by cvs -d option (see info cvs
|
|
|
- repository).
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- --cvs-user=USERNAME Set the CVS username to be used when accessing
|
|
|
- the gnulib repository.
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- --no-po Do not download po files.
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-Notice also that when using CVS authentication method "ext", bootstrap
|
|
|
-will set the variable CVS_RSH to "ssh", unless it is already set to
|
|
|
-some other value.

+Bootstrap reads its configuration from file bootstrap.conf located on the

+top of tar source tree. Several options are provided that modify its

|
|
+behavior. Run 'bootstrap --help' for a list.
