20: <p>Most modern software distributions include an autoconfigure utility which
21: customizes the build and install configuration according to the specific
22: hardware, operating system and file system conventions. For NTP this
23: utility is called <tt>configure</tt>, which is run before building and installing
24: the program components. For most installations no additional actions
25: are required other than running <tt>configure</tt> with no options.
26: However, it is possible to customize the build and install configuration
27: through the use of <tt>configure</tt> options.</p>
28: <p>The available options, together with
29: a concise description, can be displayed by running <tt>configure</tt> with
30: the <tt>--help</tt> option. Various options can be used to reduce the memory
31: footprint, adjust the scheduling priority, enable or disable debugging
32: support or reference clock driver support. The options can be used
33: to specify where to install the program components or where to find
34: various libraries if they are not in the default place.</p>
