Possibly, but I'm just doing a preliminary build. Looking at openjdk.build-boot/impsrc/common/shared/Defs-linux.gmk it appears that this can be adjusted with setting some environment variables, e.g. ALT_UNIXCOMMAND_PATH= and ALT_USRBIN_PATH= But using those seems to upset the build in other places. So far, the problem seems to be limited to head, touch, and find. -- Bruce -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
