## Installation of Gavl

Install Gavl by running the following commands:

    LIBS=-lm                      \
    ./configure --prefix=/usr     \
                --without-doxygen \
                --docdir=/usr/share/doc/gavl-1.4.0 &&
    make

This package does not come with a test suite.

Now, as the `root` user:

    make install

## Command Explanations

`LIBS=-lm`: This variable ensures the math library is searched when linking.
