Compilation and Installation

in most cases
# configure && make
and (as root)
# make install
should do the trick.

Nevertheless you should have a look at the lists of configure options and required software.

configure options

In addition to the options that are available by default frost supports the following options:
--enable-debug
Create debugging information. Enabled by default.
--enable-static
Link against static libraries. Disabled by default.
--enable-optimization=[speed|size]
Optimize for speed or size. When neither "speed" nor "size" is specified, standard optimization (-O2) is used. Enabled by default.
--enable-arch[=arch]
Enable architecture specific optimizations at the cost of backward compatibility. If "arch" is not specified, the output of `uname -m` is assumed.
This option is disabled unless you optimize explicitly for speed or size.
--enable-profiling=[flat|lcov|both]
Create profiling info for a flat profile (flat), line coverage (lcov) or both (both). Disabled by default.
--enable-core-dumps
Produce coredumps on UDS errors. Disabled by default.
--enable-leak-check
Check for memory leaks. Disabled by default.
--enable-zombies
Create zombie objects. Disabled by default.
--enable-log-allocs
Log all memory allocations / deallocations. Disabled by default.
--enable-rename-cores
Rename coredumps that are generated by UDS. Enabled by default unless debugging is disabled.
--enable-std-backtraces
generate backtraces on all UDS errors. Disabled by default.
