As I said before, I'm out of ideas. As I also said, please don't top post - we don't like it on the LFS lists. Anyway, now that I've got a little time to spare, I've dug around. Google found some links to past threads (gcc-4.4, 4.5!) which seem similar. Unfortunately, the links were to gmane, only containing the day and month, so I can't point to the versions in the LFS archives, and anyway the resolutions were a bit sketchy. What I can tell you is that one of the people reported that reinstalling binutils fixed the problem. Unfortunately, I've no idea what went wrong in his first attempt, so I can't point to anything that you should watch for. Perhaps using 'ldd' on /usr/bin/ld might show a problem ? Looking at the binutils instructions in 6.13, nothing looks particularly likely to cause problems : 1. the 'spawn ls' test will show that you will be able to run the testsuite, it doesn't affect the install. 2. removing standards.info doesn't affect how the programs work. 3. the patch fixes a compiler failure if you use -O3 in your CFLAGS. 4. The first time, I hope your binutils-build directory was new, ditto the untarred source (i.e. neither should be left over from chapter 5). In theory, the source should not be updated during the build process, but safety-first - and you seem to have done that on the rerun. 5. I suppose it is possible to miss that "tooldir=/usr" needs to be specified for _both_ 'make' and 'make install'. 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
