If you want to disable installing the static library, use this sed: sed -i '/^install-here/ s/install-static//' Makefile Now, as the root user: make install && chmod -v 755 /usr/lib/libhogweed.so.2.5 /usr/lib/libnettle.so.4.7 && install -v -m755 -d /usr/share/doc/nettle-&nettle-version; && install -v -m644 nettle.html /usr/share/doc/nettle-&nettle-version; Installed Programs Installed Libraries Installed Directory nettle-hash, nettle-lfib-stream, pkcs1-conv and sexp-conv libhogweed.{so,a} and libnettle.{so,a} /usr/include/nettle Short Descriptions nettle-hash calulates a hash value using a specified algorithm. nettle-hash nettle-lfib-stream outputs a sequence of pseudorandom (non-cryptographic) bytes, using Knuth's lagged fibonacci generator. The stream is useful for testing, but should not be used to generate cryptographic keys or anything else that needs real randomness. nettle-lfib-stream pkcs1-conv converts private and public RSA keys from PKCS #1 format to sexp format. pkcs1-conv sexp-conv converts an s-expression to a different encoding. sexp-conv
