Thanks, Paul! Yes, this is what we do, if you look at tools/coreutils/Makefile (link below), I changed PKG_VERSION and PKG_HASH. make tools/coreutils/{clean,compile} V=sc downloads the file you mentioned from one of the @GNU mirrors, the SHA2 hash matches 6885ff47b9cdb211de47d368c17853f406daaf98b148aaecdf10de29cc04b0b3, so it proceeds with the build. https://github.com/httpstorm/openwrt/tree/coreutils-9.2/tools/coreutils https://github.com/openwrt/openwrt/pull/12233/files However since the old m4-1.4.19 in under tools/m4, coreutils builds with the legacy version: https://github.com/httpstorm/openwrt/tree/coreutils-9.2/tools/m4 I tried removing tools/m4, and I get the following error https://httpstorm.com/share/.openwrt/test/2023-02-06_coreutils-9.1/2023-03-21-openwrt-build-coreutils-9.2.txt make tools/coreutils/{clean,compile} V=sc … config.status: creating po/POTFILES config.status: creating po/Makefile touch /Volumes/wrt3200/openwrt/build_dir/host/coreutils-9.2/.configured CFLAGS="-O2 -I/Volumes/wrt3200/openwrt/staging_dir/host/include " CPPFLAGS="-I/Volumes/wrt3200/openwrt/staging_dir/host/include " CXXFLAGS="" LDFLAGS="-L/Volumes/wrt3200/openwrt/staging_dir/host/lib " make -C /Volumes/wrt3200/openwrt/build_dir/host/coreutils-9.2 PROGRAMS="src/date src/readlink src/touch src/ln src/chown src/ginstall" LIBRARIES= MANS= SUBDIRS=. make[3]: Entering directory '/Volumes/wrt3200/openwrt/build_dir/host/coreutils-9.2' CDPATH="${ZSH_VERSION+.}:" && cd . && /usr/bin/env bash '/Volumes/wrt3200/openwrt/build_dir/host/coreutils-9.2/build-aux/missing' aclocal-1.16 -I m4 autom4te: error: need GNU m4 1.4 or later: /Volumes/wrt3200/openwrt/staging_dir/host/bin/m4 aclocal.real: error: autom4te failed with exit status: 1 make[3]: *** [Makefile:8458: aclocal.m4] Error 1 make[3]: Leaving directory '/Volumes/wrt3200/openwrt/build_dir/host/coreutils-9.2' make[2]: *** [Makefile:45: /Volumes/wrt3200/openwrt/build_dir/host/coreutils-9.2/.built] Error 2 make[2]: Leaving directory '/Volumes/wrt3200/openwrt/tools/coreutils' time: tools/coreutils/compile#58.69#31.58#154.08 ERROR: tools/coreutils failed to build. make[1]: *** [tools/Makefile:219: tools/coreutils/compile] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory '/Volumes/wrt3200/openwrt' make: *** [/Volumes/wrt3200/openwrt/include/toplevel.mk:231: tools/coreutils/compile] Error 2 Any ideas?
