2.3 Installation

First make sure you have the write permission to the destination directories. In most cases you will need to login as root. Then type make install. The two main binaries: the GUI-version vrr and non-GUI Scheme console guile-vrr will be installed. The other installed binaries are tools:

Together with binaries, libraries and data files, also documentation files and examples are installed. You can choose the installation path by yourself by build/configure, the default paths are usually /usr/share/vrr/doc or /usr/local/share/vrr/doc.

Removing the binaries

After the installation, you can remove the generated binaries from the source tree by typing make clean or you can do an even better cleanup by make distclean.
