The equivalent of "just configure && make && make install bro, it's super easy"

(it never is)

Edit: Alright, is it just my browser or does lemmy not know how to hand ampersands? Test: && && & &

Do you ever make install for minutes just to have it crash at the end because you missed a completely random C dependency?

And then you find out you have that dependency but your linker decides to not take it and then you have it but a slightly other version and you decide it's not worth it

Could you do that in

``

though?

Oh wait,

4 spaces

./configure && make && make install

Three circumflexes

./configure && make && make install

Edit: nope, doesn't work using the browser interface
