$ make install - kali Linux - don't know how to proceed after running

[Morsmalleo]

This is more a question than an issue because everything else for the installation ran perfectly, just don't know what to do here when I run make install when this shows up, any advice?? would i just type make install=y/make install=n or is it done differently??

mkdir -p /usr/local/bin
cp ./socketcand /usr/local/bin/
cp ./socketcandcl /usr/local/bin/
mkdir -p /usr/local/share/man
cp ./socketcand.1 /usr/local/share/man/
mkdir -p /etc/
install -m 0644 ./etc/socketcand.conf /etc/
if [ yes = yes ]; then mkdir -p /etc/init.d; install --mode=755 ./init.d/socketcand /etc/init.d/socketcand; fi
if [ no = yes ]; then install --mode=755 ./rc.d/socketcand /etc/rc.d/socketcand; fi

Hey @Morsmalleo,

I've slightly edited your output, to preserve the line breaks.

You are probably wandering about the last two lines? This is the installation of the init script and the rc script. By default only the init script is installed, the rc script isn't. You can change this with the configure options. Use ./configure --help to get an overview of the available options. e.g. use ./configure --enable-rc-script to enable the rc script installation.

What you need depends on the init system used on kali Linux. Most modern Linux distributions use systemd these days, but socketcand doesn't provide a systemd unit file yet.
