- Subject: what is the meaning of " mkdir linux-build"?
I found these commands:
$> tar -xvzf libosip-0.X.X.tar.gz
$> mkdir linux-build
$> cd linux-build
$> ../libosip-0.X.X/configure
$> make
$> make install
Can you tell me why he "mkdir linux-build" and "cd linux-build"?
Why not he directly "cd libosip-0.X.X" and "./configure".
