Hi
Just had a look through the changes William has made to the build
(GIT-20120827), there a number of issues i would like to raise.
I use the Pure 64 build method
Although I have moved on to GCC-4.7.1 and eglibc-2.16, these are
the issues i came across a month or two ago, most are not related
to the tool chain upgrade
Chapter 7
7.4 Util-linux-2.21.2
The login-utils now requires PAM (see http://www.kernel.org/pub/
linux/utils/util-linux/v2.21/v2.21-ReleaseNotes), so its a no go.
I suggest using shadow login utils, you can cross-compile shadow
4.1.5.1 by adding,
echo "ac_cv_func_setpgrp_void=yes" > config.cache
and using
CC="${CC} ${BUILD64}" ./configure --prefix=/tools --build=$
{CLFS_HOST} --host=${CLFS_TARGET} --cache-file=config.cache
sed -i 's/groups$(EXEEXT) //' src/Makefile, to remove the groups
program, if i remember correctly it doesn't build man-pages unless
you tell it to
I had to set up some symlinks
ln -sv /tools/bin/login ${CLFS}/bin/login and the same with passwd
i added a symlink to /tools/etc/login.acess and login.defs as well
7.5 e2fsprogs
why use in the compile section
LDFLAGS="-Wl,-rpath,/tools/lib64", surely should beLDFLAGS="-Wl,-
rpath,/tools/lib", but i think its unnecessary
7.7 Kmod
again why--with-rootlibdir=/lib64, surely --with-rootlibdir=/lib
7.8 udev
if you change the kmod line you need to change KMOD_LIBS="-L${CLFS}/
lib64 -lkmod" to KMOD_LIBS="-L/tools/lib -lkmod"
10.22 Coreutils
with the above changes, you would need a change in test suite
src/su dummy -c "make RUN_EXPENSIVE_TESTS=yes check" to su dummy -c
"make RUN_EXPENSIVE_TESTS=yes check"
10.25 Bison 2.6.2
Any body had any problems with this, I had to move flex before
bison, to get it to compile.
However I couldn't run either of the test suites, seems to be some
kind of hard coded path related issue, but didn't affect anything else

Martin Ward
Thanks Martin,
We'll be looking into all of this shortly. I did a multilib build
with all of this before doing the updates. We'll get some more things
ironed out quickly. Well, as long as we get some community support
building some different builds.
Sincerely,
William Harrington
