A.4.2.1. Building Static Binaries
A.4.2.2. Building RPMs

To build any of the tools, you need to have the bk tree for mysql-gui-common and the tree for the desired app (i.e.: mysql-administrator, mysql-query-browser) in the same top-level directory.

First build mysql-gui-common:

  1. cd mysql-gui-common

  2. sh ./autogen.sh

  3. ./configure --prefix=/opt/mysql-administrator

  4. make

  5. make install

The --prefix option can have whatever value you want, normally one would specify /usr/local (the default) or /usr, but for making precompiled binaries, something in /opt might be more appropriate.

After you have successfully built mysql-gui-common, you can build the individual tools (in this example we will build mysql-administrator):

  1. cd mysql-administrator

  2. sh ./autogen.sh

  3. ./configure --prefix=/opt/mysql-administrator

  4. make

  5. make install

If everything went well, things should be properly built and installed.
