Hello, 

Self-replying my previous message after further investigation on this
problem, and finally solving it. 

Both my gcc and binutils from pass 2 were built from the host toolchain, and
not from pass 1. 

And it appears that the reason for this is a copy/paste error... More
precisely : selecting the 'configure' commands from the PDF version of LFS
7.4 did not select the backslash at the end of each line on pages numbered
45 and 48. And I did not notice the problem until step 5.14 crashed.

I started over from scratch using the right 'configure' commands, and step
5.14 went fine. Problem solved. 

Conclusion : Do not patch if it is not specified in the book, but
double-check everything instead.

Hello, 

Posting this message for archive, following a thread from last october :
Building Check-0.9.10 fails and fixed. 

This was about a failure in step 5.14 of LFS 7.4, with 'make' complaining
about conflicting types for 'timer_t' in libcompat.h. 

Suggestion was made to patch the source code with a few custom lines in
order to prevent this error from raising. But I am facing this very same
issue right now, and I think it is a deeper problem so I would not recommend
patching. 


'configure' logs this line : checking for ld used by gcc... /usr/bin/ld

My /tools/bin contains : 
- i686-lfs-linux-gnu-gcc with timestamp corresponding to pass 1
- i686-pc-linux-gnu-gcc with timestamp corresponding to pass 2
- gcc (a copy of i686-pc-linux-gnu-gcc from pass 2)
- cc - gcc

export CC=/tools/bin/i686-pc-linux-gnu-gcc before configure  make : it fails. 
export CC=/tools/bin/i686-lfs-linux-gnu-gcc before configure  make : it works. 

So something probably went wrong in gcc pass 2, and it would be best to
start over again from scratch I suppose :-( 

I hope this can help others facing the same problem.

That is true. I have been using this setup for so many versions and it 
worked so I never noticed.

Thanks for the pointer.

I have added the diff for to fix the problem, in case anyone comes 
across the problem.

[lfs-support] Building Check-0.9.10 fails and fixed

2013-10-17 Thread Davis Abubakr-Sadik Nii Nai

Hello list,

I am trying to build LFS 7.4 stable. The package check-0.9.10 in section 
5.14 failed to build.
I got it to build, but would like to ask if anyone has come across this 
problem, and since it's not documented anywhere make it known to the

*Status*: Resolved

From the error message it is obvious that lib/libcompat.h is redefining 
the timer_h type, so
as a fix I commented out the offending line lib/libcompat.h:133, and the 
package built successfully.

The following is the -stripped, output of running *make check*.

PASS: check_check
PASS: test_output.sh
PASS: test_check_nofork.sh
PASS: test_xml_output.sh
PASS: test_log_output.sh
==
All 6 tests passed

HI
 *Host Requirements Script Output:*

The LFS book said that
/bin/sh should be a symbolic or hard link to bash not to dash
