compiling nbfc-linux
anyone know how to install this. I downloaded the source code off gihub https://github.com/nbfc-linux/nbfc-linux
to get .configure working, I installed autoconf.
I can then proceed and .configure, and make,
but still unable to sudo make install. says the files system is read only.. has this something to do with the container system used in bazzite?
any help is apprecited thanks

Use a different prefix, this is indeed bazzite being immutable
how do we go about doing this?
You can try
--prefix=/var/usrlocalRunning
sudo make install isn't going to work as it's going to try and write files to the /usr folder and this is an atomic desktop, so that is readonly.
You could try make a distrobox container with BoxBuddy and, build and install it from source code that way. There are distrobox guides in the Bazzite documentation discourse.
Lastly, if you need the app layered as part of the system because it maybe doesn't work in distrobox then you can try and download the .rpm file from https://github.com/nbfc-linux/nbfc-linux/releases and install with rpm-ostree install ~/Downloads/nbfc-linux-0.2.7-1.x86_64.rpm assuming that you saved it to your downloads folder.GitHub

Oops. didn't see that someone was already assisting on here. Thanks Kasher
sorry to be a bother. but wereabouts to i put this prefix into the compile?
Before ./configure

Probably
only in that line, or does it need to be added too make and make install as well?
Only there I think
