Compiling native Android apps from source on rooted device

[ragnarkar]

Assuming the application only requires the console (command line), has anyone been able to compile UNIX apps from source on Android.

You'll need Android binaries for gcc, make, etc.

Then unzip the source file, go to that directory..

./configure
make
make install

Is this even possible on Android?

Why not compile on a computer? Far easier and more reliable.
