Yes, but it is essential. The last part of it is a dump of all the variables, which you can probably ignore. Before that, each test in the configure script typically generates something to say what is running, some code which you will see, and then command(s) to check the result, plus the output including errors, and the one-liner that appears on the screen. > It is the only > file there, there are no others. I would like to know how the test for long > double works.:u Mostly, configure generates some code (you can see it in config.log) - it will be near the error message. In this case the code is probably just a call to sizeof(long double). Configure then ompiles the code and tries to run it. Sizeof uses glibc, and compiling uses gcc. If it works, you would get a result of something like 12 or 16 (the number of bytes meeded to hold a long double - it varies across different architectures). > The only thing I see missing is configure looking for crt1.so and Scrt1.so. > Those are in /tools/lib. When a test works as expected, it often fails because something is not present on a particular platform. In your case, there is a real problem. You are getting some sort of error message (crt1.so ? is that a typo for crt1.o ?) - please tell the list what it says. It looks as if glibc is broken, so from here, I _guess_ that either you went wrong when adjusting the toolchain, or you missed one of the symlinks, or perhaps you built in stages and something is linked agaisnt the host's libraries. Start by checking each of the symlinks (does the link exists, is it the right name, does it point to the right destination (beware of typos), and does the file it points to exist). After that, run 'readelf -l' against example programs to make sure they are linked against /tools. ĸen -- das eine Mal als Tragödie, das andere Mal als Farce -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
