# usage: ./monetdb-install.sh < OPTS ... >
# 
# where OPTS are:
#    --prefix=path      install into location path, defaults to $HOME/MonetDB
#    --build=path       use path as (temporary) build directory, defaults
#                       to /var/tmp/MonetDB-XXXXXXXXX
#    --enable-sql       build the MonetDB/SQL server
#    --enable-xquery    build the MonetDB/XQuery server
#    --enable-geom      build geom extension for MonetDB/SQL, this option
#                       implies --enable-sql
#    --enable-template  build template module for MonetDB extensions, this
#                       option requires nightly or cvs sources
#    --enable-testing   build the MonetDB testing suite necessary for running
#                       'make check', Mtest.py or RunMtest
#    --nightly=target   download and install a nightly snapshot of the stable
#                       or current branch, target must be 'stable' or 'current'
#    --cvs[=tag]        checkout a CVS snapshot of the current branch or
#                       optionally given tag
#    --enable-debug     compile with debugging support via e.g. gdb
#    --enable-optimise  compile with high optimisation flags, enabling this
#                       option increases compilation time considerably but
#                       often yields in a faster MonetDB server
#    --enable-optimize  alias for --enable-optimise
#    --quiet            suppress output going to stdout
#    --help             this message
#    --devhelp          special help for developers
#    --version          show revision number and quit

./monetdb-install.sh --enable-sql --enable-xquery --enable-geom --enable-optimise --prefix=$PREFIX
# I specify --prefix as I don't want it to install at $HOME/MonetDB.
# I like --prefix=/opt/local/ would be wise, as the result looks like:
#
# [csadmin@d3 ~]$ ls ~/MonetDB
# bin  etc  include  lib  lib64  share  var
# 
# ...And there are several things I want on my $PATH:
#
# [csadmin@d3 ~]$ ls MonetDB/bin
# Mbeddedmal   mclient      monetdb          monetdb-clients-config  monetdb-sql-config  msqldump
# Mbeddedsql5  merovingian  monetdb5-config  monetdb-config          mserver5            stethoscope
# 
# As I already have /opt/local/bin on $PATH for python2.6, this it seems good.

Thanks for this! It was very useful
