Hi LFS DEV team, I'm going through a linux from scrach installation, and found a bug in the bzip2 compilation like it is in the book. The problem is simple. The bzip2 package comes with a Makefile that doesn't need configure. So the part where the Makefile chooses the compiler looks like this:
CC=gcc AR=ar RANLIB=ranlib But those aren't the compilers we want, because they will be comming from the host systems path to fix this you need to execute the following comands before running make sed -i s,CC=gcc,CC=/tools/bin/gcc, Makefile sed -i s,AR=ar,AR=/tools/bin/ar, Makefile sed -i s,RANLIB=ranlib,RANLIB=/tools/bin/ranlib, Makefile I hope this bugreport is usefull to you guys!!
