Installation of libcroco

Install libcroco by running the following commands: 

./configure --prefix=/usr --disable-static &&
make

To execute the test suite, run make -k test. Some tests fail: searching files in wrong location, locale problems (character codes compared to characters), float point numbers not properly rounded to the same number of places are some of the reasons.

Now, as the root user: 

make install

Command Explanations

--disable-static: This switch prevents installation of static versions of the libraries.

--enable-gtk-doc: Use this parameter if GTK-Doc is installed and you wish to rebuild and install the API documentation.
