Building Dinit should be a straight-forward process. It requires GNU make and a C++11 compiler

(GCC version 4.9 and later, or Clang ~5.0 and later, should be fine)

CXX : should be set to the name of the C++ compiler (and link driver)

|
CXXOPTS : are options passed to the compiler during compilation (see note for GCC below)

LDFLAGS : are any extra flags required for linking; should not normally be needed
