With your diff those are in (4.7.2) libitm/, libgomp/, libquadmath/ and also in similar directories under the build dir but below '*-linux-*/ - e.g. x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu/libitm/ : I'm not at the desktop, can't remember the full name for i386. As far as people building extra languages in BLFS are concerned, the source has gcc/fortran/gfortran.info and libjava/classpath/doc/cp-tools.info. I suppose the preformatted versions will be good enough for these, even though the 4.7 branch has changes for texinfo-5.0. AFAICS the source does not have any info files for ada - perhaps those are why the build tries to create the info files. ĸen -- das eine Mal als Tragödie, das andere Mal als Farce -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/faq/ Unsubscribe: See the above information page
