I've discovered that the 'make install' step for uClibc fails when compiling as
a non-root user, because of a tar error. The error message is:
_____
printf ".svn\n.cvsignore\nCVS\n" > tar_exclude ; \
tar -chf - -X tar_exclude include \
| tar -xf - -C /usr/
include: Cannot utime: Operation not permitted
Error exit delayed from previous errors
make: *** [install_headers] Error 2
_____
I fixed the problem by replacing '-xf' with '-xmf' in the two places where this
occurs in Makefile.in (in the root of the source code tree).
sed -i'' -e 's|-xf|-xmf|' Makefile.in
I'm not sure why this isn't a problem in Chapter 5.
