I have a <mostly> Mandrake 7.1 system (with a bit of cooker thrown in). I have been trying and trying to compile the latest Mandrake Cooker glibc=2.1.3-16 src rpm but cannot. I have been able to install, without ANY problems, the glibc-2.1.3=16mdk binary rpms but when I try to compile the src.rpm, I get nothin' but a screen of errors at the end of which I get no resulting rpms. The errors I get, repeated hundreds and hundreds of times are: /bin/sh: invalid character 45 in exportstr for full-config-sysdirs sysdeps/unix/make-syscalls.sh: invalid character 45 in exportstr for full-config -sysdirs sysdeps/unix/make-syscalls.sh: invalid character 45 in exportstr for full-config -sysdirs sysdeps/unix/make-syscalls.sh: invalid character 45 in exportstr for full-config -sysdirs ad infinitim I have not run into problems with ANY other source tarball OR src.rpm until now with this glibc src.rpm. What gives? What does it take to fix this?
