The directory is called iso-codes-4.12.0.
Install ISO Codes by running the following commands:
./configure --prefix=/usr && make
To test the results, issue: make check.
If you install ISO codes over a previous installed version, the install step will fail when creating some symlinks. In order to properly update them, run:
sed -i '/^LN_S/s/s/sfvn/' */Makefile
Now, as the root user:
make install
