The problem with lzop was solved by configuring lzo with the option --without-pic. The problem with gzip seems to be related to glibc and was solved by using eglibc. svn co svn://svn.eglibc.org/trunk/libc It compiles fine (with gcc-4.5.0 tested on both x86_64 and i686) but had a problem installing nscd in tools without libssp available so I disabled installing nscd with a simple sed. I don't think we need a nameserver caching daemon in tools. sed -i 's/ nscd$//' nscd/Makefile I'm not aware of any problems. Everything seems to be working as it should on both i686 and x86_64. Humpty Dumpty is all back together again. Andy -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/faq/ Unsubscribe: See the above information page
