New Themyscira Wireless software components, as well as sw components that sit between FreeCalypso and ThemWi realms like the present package, use configure scripts - you need to run ./configure before running 'make'. However, our configure script is hand-coded, not Autotools/autohell, hence there is no autoreconf nonsense involved. Standard --prefix, --exec-prefix and --bindir options are supported for changing the installation directory for the compiled binaries; the default prefix is /usr/local, following general FOSS community conventions. Choice of install location ========================== If you are a FreeCalypso user, if you are installing the present package for the purpose of using it together with FC host tools and/or FC SIM tools, and you like the approach of having all FC components neatly compartmented under /opt/freecalypso (with /opt/freecalypso/bin added to your PATH), you can put these SMS utitilies in the same place by running configure like this: ./configure --prefix=/opt/freecalypso OTOH, if you are someone who does not like and has never liked the scheme of FC binaries residing in /opt/freecalypso/bin, you can install wherever you like.
