Hi. When I run the configure script, it fails with the message: "error: cannot compute suffix of object files"
In config.log, I have: configure:2361: checking for gcc configure:2377: found /tools/bin/gcc configure:2387: result: gcc configure:2631: checking for C compiler version configure:2634: gcc --version </dev/null/>&5 ../glibc-2.3.6/configure: line 2635: /tools/bin/gcc: No such file or directory I have been back to Chapter 5 step '5.11 gcc-4.0.3 - Pass 2' and double checked everything, and even rebuilt the temporary system from scratch. At this stage I applied the specs patch. The results of the dummy compile in the 'caution' section tell me that my program interpreter is /tools/lib/ld-linux.so.2, so it would appear that the build of gcc has worked. Before running the configure in step 6.9, I extracted glibc-libidn into the glibc source directory and applied the patches for linux-types and inotify as per the book. I have checked the result of the sed command in step '5.7 Adjusting the Toolchain'. In the specs file, ($LFS/tools/lib/gcc/i686-pc-linux-gnu/4.0.3/specs) there is only one entry for ld-linux.so.2, as follows: *dynamic linker: /tools/lib/ld-linux.so.2 So, /tools/bin/gcc exists, but the configure script for glibc doesn't seem to be able to use it. Any suggestions/pointers would be gratefully accepted! _________________________________________________________________ Be one of the first to try Windows Live Mail. http://ideas.live.com/programpage.aspx?versionId=5d21c51a-b161-4314-9b0e-4911fb2b2e6d-- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
