I think you have to solve this issue before you go any further. First, is /bin in your PATH? Can you run /bin/ls? You might want to check the directory and file permissions for /bin, /lib, /sbin, etc.
Sorry, I don't understand. The configure script looked for /bin/rm but couldn't find it. Yes /bin is in my path but rm ls and ln when issuing a "which" command report that they are in /usr/bin I can use the rm ls and ln commands as I'd expect. I've currently built a number of packages for this system and ncftp is the only one I've had this kind of problem. Strangely an older version that I built on the same system a year ago threw the same error. /usr/local/bin:/bin:/usr/bin:/home/gena/bin total 2256 -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 2952 2007-06-14 12:06 arch -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 595100 2007-06-14 12:06 bash -r-xr-xr-x 1 root root 6806 2007-06-12 21:36 bashbug lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 5 2007-06-12 21:44 bunzip2 -> bzip2 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 5 2007-06-12 21:44 bzcat -> bzip2 -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 34005 2007-06-14 12:06 bzip2 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 14 2007-06-11 16:56 cat -> /tools/bin/cat -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 4396 2007-06-14 12:06 dmesg lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 8 2007-06-16 20:07 dnsdomainname -> hostname lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 8 2007-06-16 20:07 domainname -> hostname -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 33 2007-06-12 22:42 egrep -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 33 2007-06-12 22:42 fgrep -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 151513 2007-06-14 12:06 find -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 24881 2007-06-14 12:06 fuser -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 88407 2007-06-14 12:06 grep -rwxr-xr-x 2 root root 61 2007-06-12 23:02 gunzip -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 63901 2007-06-14 12:06 gzip -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 30980 2007-06-14 12:06 head -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 17403 2007-06-16 20:07 hostname -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 5788 2007-06-14 12:06 kbd_mode -r-xr-xr-x 1 root root 12444 2007-06-14 12:06 kill -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 18396 2007-06-14 12:06 killall -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 75416 2007-06-14 12:06 loadkeys -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 49122 2007-06-14 12:06 login -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 8330 2007-06-14 12:06 lsmod -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 26892 2007-06-14 12:06 more -rwsr-xr-x 1 root root 57060 2007-06-14 12:06 mount -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 4656 2007-06-14 12:06 mountpoint -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 225562 2007-06-16 20:07 netstat -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 20035 2007-06-14 12:06 nice lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 8 2007-06-16 20:07 nisdomainname -> hostname -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 23330 2007-06-14 12:06 oldfuser -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 9220 2007-06-14 12:06 openvt -rwsr-xr-x 1 root root 28917 2007-06-14 12:06 passwd -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 9631 2007-06-14 12:06 peekfd lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 16 2007-06-13 21:50 pidof -> ../sbin/killall5 -rwsrwxr-x 1 root root 30634 2007-06-14 12:06 ping -r-xr-xr-x 1 root root 65484 2007-06-14 12:06 ps lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 14 2007-06-11 16:56 pwd -> /tools/bin/pwd -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 107783 2007-06-14 12:06 sed -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 31188 2007-06-14 12:06 setfont lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 4 2007-06-11 16:56 sh -> bash -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 18800 2007-06-14 12:06 sleep lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 15 2007-06-11 16:56 stty -> /tools/bin/stty -rwsr-xr-x 1 root root 32618 2007-06-14 12:06 su -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 269992 2007-06-14 12:06 tar -rwsr-xr-x 1 root root 31152 2007-06-14 12:06 umount lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 8 2007-06-16 20:07 ypdomainname -> hostname -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 62 2007-06-12 23:02 zcat -- Dan -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page __________ NOD32 2336 (20070618) Information __________ This message was checked by NOD32 antivirus system. http://www.eset.com -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
