Hi
Did you extract a fresh source tarball, and create a fresh build
directory ? The only references to that message that I can see on
google are from a failed cross-compile (no reason established, the
builder was pointed to a more authoritative method of doing it) and on
linuxquestions, for both binutils and gcc, where the problems seemed
to be related to reusing the pass 1 directories.
No I kept the original source as instructed. Although, I didn't feel confident
about renewing the build directory but it was quite clear that was necessary.
I deleted all of the files inside my original build directory and attempted my
second build. Shouldn't have I deleted the build contents of the first pass?
The book doesn't say to keep the source dirs, except for a couple
specific packages (binutils and tcl). Unless the book says otherwise,
you must remove source and build directories after each package
installation (this is mentioned in section 5.1 of the book).
