Hi, I don't quite understand how re-writing the 'specs' file under the '/tools' directory actually works -- by the way it does work!.
The specs file that is written with the fancy 'sed' script shows up as: /tools/lib/gcc/x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu/4.5.1/specs I don't get how writing the spec file under directory '/tools' works? The above spec file correctly has '/tools' removed leaving the correct result behind: '/usr/lib' However, if after running the fancy 'sed' command, I do cc -dumpspecs | grep '/tools' %{!static:--eh-frame-hdr} %{!m32:-m elf_x86_64} %{m32:-m elf_i386} %{shared:-shared} %{!shared: %{!static: %{rdynamic:-export-dynamic} %{m32:%{!dynamic-linker:-dynamic-linker %{muclibc:%{mglibc:%e-mglibc and -muclibc used together}/tools/lib/ld-uClibc.so.0;:/tools/lib/ld-linux.so.2}}} %{!m32:%{!dynamic-linker:-dynamic-linker %{muclibc:%{mglibc:%e-mglibc and -muclibc used together}/tools/lib/ld64-uClibc.so.0;:/tools/lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2}}}} %{static:-static}} Note that '/tools' is still there. Yet when I run the sanity check I still get the correct result? echo 'main(){}' > dummy.c cc dummy.c -v -Wl,--verbose &> dummy.log readelf -l a.out | grep ': /lib' [Requesting program interpreter: /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2] grep -o '/usr/lib.*/crt[1in].*succeeded' dummy.log /usr/lib/crt1.o succeeded /usr/lib/crti.o succeeded /usr/lib/crtn.o succeeded Just curious? I'm missing some small concept here? Thanks, John
