Re: [Clfs-support] Util-linux 2.29.2 in Chapter 6 fails to build when cross compiling for PowerPC

Yeah, like Michelle said, you need libncurses...   I got this stuff compiling on a different platform, and then it stopped compiling again.  It's really more of a pain than they let on.  I'll let you know if I find a clean way to do it.

 

But why are you using systemd?  systemd is cancer.

Subject: [Clfs-support] Util-linux 2.29.2 in Chapter 6 fails to build when cross compiling for PowerPC

I'm building Util-linux 2.29.2 in Chapter 6 for PowerPC 32-BIT. My build
system is a Core 2 Duo with Linux from Scratch 20170713-systemd x86_64.
When I type make, ld gives me this error:

/mnt/clfs/cross-tools/bin/../lib/gcc/powerpc-unknown-linux-gnu/7.2.0/../../../../powerpc-unknown-linux-gnu/bin/ld:
cannot find -lncursesw
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
make[2]: *** [Makefile:7214: ul] Error 1
make[2]: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs....
make[2]: Leaving directory '/mnt/clfs/sources/util-linux-2.31'
make[1]: *** [Makefile:11990: all-recursive] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory '/mnt/clfs/sources/util-linux-2.31'
make: *** [Makefile:5002: all] Error 2

I installed Linux Headers 4.13.11, GCC 7.2.0, Binutils-2.29, and Glibc
2.26 in this cross toolchain.

I will greatly appreciate any help.

Thanks
