Since moving to gcc 4.8.x I noticed something interesting.
I normally use LFS or CLFS builds to build current LFS or CLFS versions, but sometimes I use debian.
I did notice today that the host system needs zlib headers available. I have built LFS and CLFS a lot with debian and I think this is something new.
We need to either build zlib during cross tools or in the host system requirements make sure that the host has the zlib dev files. Otherwise lto will fail during gcc build.
Adding zlib to cross tools is no issue, but is it needed? We cannot rely on users making sure their host has their distro's zlib dev package installed.
Any comments on how to go about this? SIncerely, William Harrington _______________________________________________ Clfs-dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.cross-lfs.org/listinfo.cgi/clfs-dev-cross-lfs.org
