# Compiled current v12.2 gcc to ~/workspace/gcc-build-master
# To use it I made a script to set some environment variables
# source will make them available in the current terminal session.
# Just executing the script without source will only work inside the script

source set_environment_stuff_to_newest_gcc.sh

# There is no configure --prefix=/home/anton/workspace/kakoune/bin
# So use prefix with make
# https://www.baeldung.com/linux/change-install-dir-make-install
# EDIT: But prefix isn't handled by the configuration here and will always
# compile to ./src directory.

make

# (for man pages) just unpacks ./doc/kak.1.gz

make man 

# Move the binary to /home/anton/workspace/kakoune/bin

make PREFIX=/bin DESTDIR=/home/anton/workspace/kakoune install

# Copied kakoune/colors and rc to bin/shared manually
