Copying gconv-modules to the build dir just before running 'make check' eliminated all the locale test errors. My Linux knowledge isn't at the stage yet where I can decipher enough of the build scripts for glibc to figure out why this needed to be done (but trying was fun in a headache-inducing way). Hopefully it's just an issue with the tests and won't cause any problems to crop up with later compiles in the CLFS build. -- Mark * apologies if this reply isn't threaded, my mbox experienced a user error _______________________________________________ Clfs-support mailing list [email protected] http://lists.cross-lfs.org/listinfo.cgi/clfs-support-cross-lfs.org
