I'm sure this has been asked before but after some time searching I'm not finding quite what I want.

I have a test server that I cannot install GCC or other development needs on. On my development linux computer I can ssh to the test server, I want to install certain packages that require running ./configure and make.

Is there a way to run the make processes on my computer pointed at the remote host to install that way?

The problem with doing this is that your build process needs to see the libraries on your test server. So you probably should do one of these:

  • Set up a virtual machine with the same configuration as your test server, and add the development tools to that.

  • Install the development tools to a custom location your test server.

  • Use OverlayFS to install development tools in a "virtual environment" on the test server.
