I am using Ubuntu 11.10 and LFS 7.0 with all the versions of the packages that the book is using.
I am currently going through LFS for the first time. I am compiling glibc now and have a question about the next step. Earlier in book 7.0, it says: After the Glibc installation, change gcc's specs file to point to the new dynamic linker in /tools/lib. This last step is vital in ensuring that searching and linking take place only within the /tools prefix. A hard-wired path to a dynamic linker is embedded into every Executable and Link Format (ELF)-shared executable. This can be inspected by running: readelf -l <name of binary> | grep interpreter. Amending gcc's specs file ensures that every program compiled from here through the end of this chapter will use the new dynamic linker in /tools/ lib. Is there a step by step process on the commands I need to put in and where I need to change this specific file? This seems like a VERY important step to screw up and ANY help would be greatly appreciated! If I don't need to do this now, please let me know! Thanks, Jim Washko
