install-pkg.sh

#!/bin/bash
#
# A basic script to retrieve and install packages to a local directory
# (e.g. in a users home space)
#
# We assume packages can be compiled in the "standard" way using
# "configure" and "make"
#
# A better alternative is to use your inbuilt package manager to install things
#  e.g.
#   Debian/Ubuntu:
#      sudo apt-get install package_name
#   Fedora/Red Hat/CentOS:
#      sudo yum install package_name
#   OpenSUSE:
#      zypper install package_name
#   MacPorts:
#      sudo port install package_name
#   Homebrew:
#      brew install package_name
