Glibc will fail to compile in chapter 6

2006-05-22 Thread Ismael Luceno

Test failures when compiling binutils with optimizations

2006-05-22 Thread Ismael Luceno
Some test related to symbols will fail when compiling binutils with -O3 or -finline-functions (because of inlined functions), but binutils should be ok. It's a good idea to put a note about it, or maybe add instructions to patch the tests makefiles to use -fno-inline-functions. -- http://linuxfr

The first time i built ncurses-5.5 tic complained about some unresolved symbols. I built ncurses-5.5 again (this time on LFS-6.2-pre1), and tic doesn't complain anymore, maybe i did something that caused the problem, or maybe the problem is related to the host. I will try to recreate the problem
