Install libpaper by running the following commands:
autoreconf -fi                &&
./configure --prefix=/usr     \
            --sysconfdir=/etc \
            --disable-static &&
make
        This package does not come with a test suite.
          Now, as the root user:
        
make install &&
mkdir -vp /etc/libpaper.d &&
cat > /usr/bin/run-parts << "EOF"
#!/bin/sh
# run-parts:  Runs all the scripts found in a directory.
# from Slackware, by Patrick J. Volkerding with ideas borrowed
# from the Red Hat and Debian versions of this utility.
# keep going when something fails
set +e
if [ $# -lt 1 ]; then
  echo "Usage: run-parts <directory>"
  exit 1
fi
if [ ! -d $1 ]; then
  echo "Not a directory: $1"
  echo "Usage: run-parts <directory>"
  exit 1
fi
# There are several types of files that we would like to
# ignore automatically, as they are likely to be backups
# of other scripts:
IGNORE_SUFFIXES="~ ^ , .bak .new .rpmsave .rpmorig .rpmnew .swp"
# Main loop:
for SCRIPT in $1/* ; do
  # If this is not a regular file, skip it:
  if [ ! -f $SCRIPT ]; then
    continue
  fi
  # Determine if this file should be skipped by suffix:
  SKIP=false
  for SUFFIX in $IGNORE_SUFFIXES ; do
    if [ ! "$(basename $SCRIPT $SUFFIX)" = "$(basename $SCRIPT)" ]; then
      SKIP=true
      break
    fi
  done
  if [ "$SKIP" = "true" ]; then
    continue
  fi
  # If we've made it this far, then run the script if it's executable:
  if [ -x $SCRIPT ]; then
    $SCRIPT || echo "$SCRIPT failed."
  fi
done
exit 0
EOF
chmod -v 755 /usr/bin/run-parts
      
          --disable-static: This
          switch prevents installation of static versions of the libraries.
        
mkdir -pv /etc/libpaper.d: libpaper expects that packages will install files into this directory.
          cat > /usr/bin/run-parts <<
          "EOF" : paperconfig
          is a script which will invoke run-parts if /etc/libpaper.d exists. No other BLFS package
          installs this, so we create it here.
