Found the problem! I have selinux enforcing with the default Fedora FC6 policy which does not allow text relocation - found it by enabling debugging in runtest. Looks like it was previously posted in the binutils mailing list: http://sourceware.org/ml/binutils/2006-07/msg00240.html. I made the test work by just disabling selinux. I guess it should be possible to create a patch for the testsuite to change the security context of the concerned files. Is there a binutils expert lurking who can patch up the testsuite? Else, LFS could be modified to warn about this. -karthik -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
