Installing Ninja

Greenplum uses Ninja as the build system. Installing Ninja helps to build and install Greenplum more quickly.

If Greenplum 6.12.1 is installed, you do not need to install Ninja.

1. Download the Ninja source code.

   cd /opt/tool 
   wget https://github.com/ninja-build/ninja/archive/refs/tags/v1.10.1.zip

2. Decompress the package and install Ninja.

   unzip v1.10.1.zip 
   cd ninja-1.10.1/ 
   ./configure.py --bootstrap 
   cp ninja /usr/bin/
