BTW-- now that I have done what the book told me to do,
CC="gcc" /usr/bin/perl scripts/test-installation.pl
/sources/glibc-build/
Your new glibc installation seems to be ok.
make[1]: Leaving directory `/sources/glibc-2.14.1'
root:/sources/glibc-build#

Joy.

Building an OS is complicated. Don't assume. There are a couple of
places where we say an item is optional, but not many.
The most general recommendation f
Here is the section I did not do. I did not realize that it was

I feel silly replying to myself again -- but...after re-running the
check, and it coming up OK... I went ahead and went to install this
glibc... the tail end of the error message (I assume this is relating to

Now -- this is funny, I re-ran:

Actually, this is my entire list:
make[2]: *** [/sources/glibc-build/libio/tst-fopenloc.check] Error 127
make[1]: *** [libio/tests] Error 2
make[2]: *** [/sources/glibc-build/posix/bug-regex32.out] Error 1
make[2]: [/sources/glibc-build/posix/annexc.out] Error 1 (ignored)
make[2]: *** [/sources/gli
When building and installing (6.9) the glibc ... what test errors are
acceptable? What are the guidelines for determining "quirkiness" vs.
"woops, I screwed up" ?
For example, the following error (and a refusal to finish the make) ..
I assume to be bad:
make[2]: *** [/sources/glibc-build/elf/n
