## Command Explanations

`--disable-static`: This switch prevents installation of static versions of the libraries.

`--with-cups-rundir=/run/cups`: Defines the directory containing transient printing data. The default `/var/run/cups` is obsolete.

`--without-rcdir`: This switch disables installation of the bundled bootscript which is not compatible with BLFS.
