The test program build for `trc_pkt_lister` also builds an auxiliary library used by this program for test purposes only.
This is the `libsnapshot_parser.a` library, delivered to the `./tests/lib/<tgt_dir>` directories.
+**Note on Linux Build Directory Names**
+
+Due to tool limitations, the makefiles will not operate correctly if the path to the opencsd directories contains spaces.
+
+e.g. checking out the project into a directory such as ` /home/name/my opencsd/` will result in build failures.

__Installing on Linux__
The libraries can be installed on linux using the `make install` command. This will usually require root privileges. Installation will be the version in the `./lib/<tgt_dir>` directory, according to options chosen.
