This package has a test suite available which can perform a number of checks to ensure it built correctly. Should you choose to run it, the following command will do so:
make RUN_EXPENSIVE_TESTS=yes check |
The meaning of the make option:
RUN_EXPENSIVE_TESTS=yes: This tells the test suite to run several additional tests that are considered relatively expensive on some platforms. Hovever, they are generally not a problem on Linux.
And install the package:
make install |
