I am trying to install the latest version of bzip2 in an RHEL server. The current version of bzip2 installed is 1.0.5 and is not useful for my purposes.

The 1.0.6 version of bzip2 is available from http://www.bzip.org/downloads.html

Commands 

tar xzvf bzip2-1.0.6.tar.gz
cd bzip2-1.0.6
vim README

README section screenshot:

So I do 

make -f Makefile libbz2_so
make
make install

This doesn't seem to work out for me.

The output from make install is:

    it would be useful if you could add *what* doesn't work or what error messages you get. My crystal ball is off for repair atm – tofro Jun 27 '16 at 10:05
  • Please see the output from make install command. Screenshot is attached. – j1897 Jun 27 '16 at 10:07

    That screenshot unfortunately doesn't answer any of the above. – tofro Jun 27 '16 at 10:31
  • Agreed that an error message or what is not working would be super helpful, but my crystal ball is telling me the bzip in `/usr/bin` is taking preference over this one installed in `/usr/local/bin` and that is causing the 'not working for me'. – Matthew Schuchard Jun 27 '16 at 13:42
  • How do I correct it? – j1897 Jun 28 '16 at 07:07
