Andrew Pinski <pinskia at gcc dot gnu.org> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Resolution|--- |WORKSFORME Status|UNCONFIRMED |RESOLVED --- Comment #1 from Andrew Pinski <pinskia at gcc dot gnu.org> --- This works for many other people even back then. What is failing is tar while fixincludes is doing a copying: (cd `${PWDCMD-pwd}`/include-fixed ; \ tar -cf - .; exit 0) | (cd /tmp/WebKit/WebKitBuild/Dependencies/Source/gcc-4.7.2/host-x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu/prev-gcc/../gcc/./include-fixed; tar xpf - ) So if it is failing, either there is something wrong with the kernel you were using or filesystem that is at fault (or ssl got created incorrectly which I doubt it but it might have been an issue with your /usr/include in the first place). Nothing GCC build system is doing wrong.
