szip installation


Hello, this is my first contact with linux... I have to install szip v2.0 on fedora core 4. My questions are:

1- I have two files "szip2.0-linux-gcc3.2.3-enc.tar.gz" and "szip2.0-linux-enc.tar.gz", which is the right one for fedora 4?

2- After downloading and uncompressing the software, how do I install szip?

3-This library must be a "shared library" and I must modify my "LD_LIBRARY_PATH" to include szip shared library, how do I do this?


Hope you can help me...

Regards.

The gcc3.2.3 is for gcc3.2 and the other one is the default one(I am assuming).

After uncompressing
tar -xvzf szip-...-tar.gz
Read the readme file, and the install file.
