To compile this package, you'll need the following:

• BFD. Any version with
  disassemblers for x86, ppc and s390 will do. This usually comes with
  the distro packaged as binutils-devel or similar.
• libkdumpfile. Some distributions
  now package it as libkdumpfile-devel or libkdumpfile-dev.
• GNU C Library. Almost
  any version will do. Other C libraries may also work, but since there
  is no standard interface for byte-order macros, this may need some porting.
• GCC. The source uses a few construct specific
  to GCC (such as variable attributes). Porting should be easy, though.

Once you've got the prerequisites, simply unpack the tarball and run

make
make install

This installs the binary and manual page under /usr/local. You can specify a
different PREFIX, e.g.:

make install PREFIX=/usr

You can also tweak BINDIR and MANDIR this way.
