Hi, I'm trying to do the LFS for the first time. I'm using the 7.4 version of the book and I encountered the first error that I couldn't solve using the faq or Google. The host distribution is Ubuntu 13.10.
I'm in the 5.13 section (DejaGNU-1.5.1). I ran `./configure --prefix/tools' and this is the result: --- lfs@yoyodyne:/mnt/lfs/sources/dejagnu-1.5.1$ ./configure --prefix=/tools checking for a BSD-compatible install... /usr/bin/install -c checking whether build environment is sane... yes /mnt/lfs/sources/dejagnu-1.5.1/missing: Unknown `--is-lightweight' option Try `/mnt/lfs/sources/dejagnu-1.5.1/missing --help' for more information configure: WARNING: 'missing' script is too old or missing checking for a thread-safe mkdir -p... /bin/mkdir -p checking for gawk... gawk checking whether make sets $(MAKE)... yes checking whether make supports nested variables... yes checking whether to enable maintainer-specific portions of Makefiles... no checking whether make sets $(MAKE)...

I think I may have done some of the instructions from expect in the tcl folder. Other than that, I don't know what the mistake could've been. Any pointers would be helpful. Thanks (and sorry for the English)
