I'm trying to compile the latest version of emacs on Ubuntu 16.04.
After installing the libraries I could think of, the ./configure
script outputs the following:
Where should the build process find the source code? .
What compiler should emacs be built with? gcc -g3 -O2
Should Emacs use the GNU version of malloc? yes
(Using Doug Lea's new malloc from the GNU C Library.)
