What I want to do now is compile it in chroot environment and install only it there. Just in case I missed some kind of linking. That seems unlikely, but....
ldd /tools/bin/su (on the copied version) provided: > linux-vdso.so.1 (0x00007ffff9b38000) > libcrypt.so.1 => /tools/lib/libcrypt.so.1 (0x00007f20fb668000) > libc.so.6 => /tools/lib/libc.so.6 (0x00007f20fb2b8000) > /tools/lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 (0x00007f20fb8a0000) as did ldd on my DESTDIR install, so it looks like everything is there. The two lines from the install log that I need are libtool: install: /usr/bin/install -c su /home/dan/LFS-7.4/shadow/bin/su and chmod -f 4755 /home/dan/LFS-7.4/shadow/bin/su; So after I compile I need either make install -c -m 0755 src/su /tools/bin or install -c -m 0755 src/su /tools/bin Which of the two commands will give me the necessary linking I need? Does it make a difference? Is the sytax correct. I apologize for being such a make and install dummy. It's just one of those things that I haven't gotten. BTW, I neither need nor want mode 4755 for the chroot environment.
