Hi. Chapter 5's toolchain is working now, with -fPIE -DFORTIFY_SOURCE=2, etc:
http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/~robert/hlfs/NEO/ I noticed Ncurses and Bash have lots of configure options. Ncurses has assertions checking and tons of debugging options, I added --enable-warnings for now, -Werror could be added if a couple 'unused parameter' warnings could be fixed. Bash has --with-purify to use the Purify memory allocation checker, and an interesting --enable-strict-posix-default option. They both support profiling too. See the INSTALL files. make-3.81 compiles with -Wall -Werror. The only package I'm worried about now is Glibc in chapter 6, and it might be fine, other than that its downhill now. I'm thinking to commit NEO to svn if Glibc in chapter 6 installs, with a warning on the first page that the book is probably broken in some places. uClibc will be broken for sure. But then we can start getting more feedback and things can get fixed faster. robert
