Make zfs fs directories for building software (boost).
$ doas zfs create -o mountpoint=/build zroot/build $ doas zfs create -o mountpoint=/build/boost-1.78 zroot/build/boost-1.78 $ doas chown -R YourLoginName:YourLoginName /build
Q: Why create a /build fs for building software?
A: After building software, we might want to keep all of the building files for future use, such as boost.
Q: Why create a /build/boost fs for building boost software?
A: Boost software is not a small project which contains many files. If we want to delete all of them one day, it will take lots of time to wait. Making a zfs fs will let it be removed within a second:
$ zfs destroy -f zroot/build/boost-1.78
zfs destroy is a super fast command to remove the fs including
the underlying files.
Download boost software from official website:
(Take boost 1.78.0 for example)
$ fetch https://boostorg.jfrog.io/artifactory/main/release/1.78.0/source/boost_1_78_0.tar.bz2
Extract Boost:
$ tar -jxvf boost_1_78_0.tar.bz2 -C /build/boost-1.78
Start Building Boost:
$ cd /build/boost-1.78/boost_1_78_0/ $ ./bootstrap.sh $ ./b2 --prefix=/sandbox
$ doas ./b2 --prefix=/sandbox install
