Hi, I don't think $subject should be particularly contentious, but thought I'd send a request for approval/comments just in case.
So, ticket #3066 states that on certain hosts Ncurses fails to build if GPM is installed. This is because the configure script is apparently finding the GPM headers on the host. This is Not Good (TM). The fix for this is to add --with-native-system-header-dir=/tools/include to GCC's pass1 and pass2 builds so that it doesn't look at /usr/include at all. In addition, --without-cloog and --without-ppl can be removed as they don't do anything useful. Jeremy, my gut feeling is that your proposed build method changes may well make it into trunk fairly shortly, but in the mean time I'd like to take the above mentioned commits as they fix known issues and are as applicable to the old build method as the new (i.e. they don't require any of your other changes in order to be applied to trunk). Any objections? Ta, Matt. -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/faq/ Unsubscribe: See the above information page
