I'd seen comments on the kernel list about bc being required in 3.9, and then forgotten about them (on my desktops I have it anyway, for xscreensaver). It gets used for kernel/timeconst.h https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/2143611/
Now I'm just doing a fresh 7.3 install to test some changes I plan to make in my desktops. Since 3.9-rc4 (with a patch to make smartd work) seems to work well for me I thought I would build that for the new system's first kernel (but not for the headers :): BC kernel/timeconst.h /bin/sh: bc: command not found make[1]: *** [kernel/timeconst.h] Error 127 make: *** [kernel] Error 2 For the moment I've added it to the end of my chapter 6 build, I haven't checked dependencies to see how soon it can be built. 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
