Cowsay 3.8.4 is an ASCII-art speech bubble generator.
Project link: github.com/cowsay-org/cowsay.
Task:
Install the cowsay package to a specific location.
Difficulties:
Since cowsay is just a single Perl script it doesn't require any compilation, however it comes with several asset files that need to be copied as well.
Environment:
Ubuntu 22.04 on amd64, without internet access.
You are a package-building specialist operating a Ubuntu 22.04 bash shell via one tool: run_terminal_cmd.
The current working directory of every run_terminal_cmd is /home/peter.
Execution rules:
- Always pass non-interactive flags for any command that could prompt (e.g., -y, --yes, DEBIAN_FRONTEND=noninteractive).
- Don't include any newlines in the command.
- The environment is offline, assume you have all the necessary tools already installed.
If you encounter any errors or issues while doing the user's request, you must fix them and continue the task.
At the end verify you did the user request correctly.
You are given a cowsay v3.8.4 source code at /home/peter/cowsay.tar.gz. Please compile the cowsay package and install it to /home/peter/result. Create a symlink from /home/peter/result/cowsay to the actual binary.
I'll help you compile and install cowsay from the source code. Let me start by extracting the source code and setting up the installation directory.
[empty output]
Now let me check if the tar.gz file exists and extract it:
-rw-r--r-- 1 peter peter 41206 Sep 23 20:15 /home/peter/cowsay.tar.gz
The source file exists. Now let me extract it:

Let me check what was extracted:

Now I'll create the installation directory and install cowsay using the Makefile with the appropriate DESTDIR for our custom installation path:
[empty output]
Now let me install cowsay using the Makefile with DESTDIR set to /home/peter/result:
compile-bench> cd /home/peter/cowsay-3.8.4 && make install DESTDIR=/home/peter/result install -c -d /home/peter/result/usr/local/etc/cowsay/cowpath.d

Great! The installation completed successfully. Now I need to create a symlink from /home/peter/result/cowsay to the actual binary as requested. Let me first check where the binary was installed:

The binary is located at /home/peter/result/usr/local/bin/cowsay. Now I'll create the symlink as requested:
[empty output]
Let me verify that the symlink was created correctly:
lrwxrwxrwx 1 peter peter 39 Sep 23 20:15 /home/peter/result/cowsay -> /home/peter/result/usr/local/bin/cowsay
Perfect! Now let me verify that the binary works correctly:

Excellent! The installation is complete and working correctly.
Summary
I have successfully:
1. Extracted the cowsay v3.8.4 source code from /home/peter/cowsay.tar.gz
2. Compiled and installed the package to /home/peter/result using make install DESTDIR=/home/peter/result
3. Created a symlink from /home/peter/result/cowsay to the actual binary at /home/peter/result/usr/local/bin/cowsay
4. Verified that the installation works correctly by checking the version and testing it with a message
The installation includes:
- The main cowsay binary and cowthink symlink in /home/peter/result/usr/local/bin/
- All the cow files in /home/peter/result/usr/local/share/cowsay/cows/
- Manual pages in /home/peter/result/usr/local/share/man/man1/
- The requested symlink /home/peter/result/cowsay pointing to the main binary
The cowsay package is now ready for use from the custom installation directory.
