--target=TARGET Requests that the sources be configured to target the TARGET machine. If no target is specified explicitly, the target is assumed to be the same as the host.
--srcdir=DIR tells configure to find the source in DIR. Object code is always built in the current directory, `.'.
--rm asks configure to remove a configuration rather than create one.
--site=SITE asks configure to use any site-specific Makefile fragments for SITE when building Makefiles.
--prefix=DIR sets the location in which to install files to DIR. The default is "/usr/local".
--exec_prefix=DIR sets the root directory for host-dependent files to DIR. The default location is the value of prefix.
--program_prefix=DIR configures the source to install programs which have the same names as common Unix programs, such as "make", in DIR. Also applies to programs which might be used for cross-compilation.
--tmpdir=DIR sets the directory in which configure creates temporary files to DIR.
--with-PACKAGE[=YES/NO] sets a flag for the build to recognize that PACKAGE is explicitly present or not present. If \=YES/NO is nonexistent, the default is YES. --without-PACKAGE is equivalent to --with-PACKAGE=no .
--enable-FEATURE[=YES/NO] sets a flag for the build to recognize that FEATURE should be included or not included. If \=YES/NO is nonexistent, the default is YES. --disable-FEATURE is equivalent to --enable-FEATURE=no .
--norecursion asks that only the current directory be configured. Normally configure recurs on subdirectories.
-nfp Notifies configure that all of the specified hosts have no floating point units.
-s used internally by configure to supress status messages on subdirectory recursions. Override with -v
-v verbose output. Asks that configure print status lines for each directory configured. Normally, only the status lines for the current directory are printed.
--version -V prints configure version number.
-help displays a brief usage summary.
Makefile.in Makefile template
config.sub for parsing configuration names
config.guess for guessing HOST when not specified
config.status non-recursively rebuilds current directory
gmon.out dynamic call graph and profile.
gmon.sum summarized dynamic call graph and profile.
