Hi Folks I am trying to build up my toolchain for 5.x. Unfortunately the build process fails with
.....
buildtool Version 0.7 starting
Fri Oct 11 14:17:22 2013
checking build environment
trace support not enabled in configfile
make: Entering directory
`/data/leaf/devel/leaf.new/bering-uclibc/source/i486-unknown-linux-uclibc/linux'
/data/leaf/devel/leaf.new/bering-uclibc/tools/setup-builddir -v
linux-3.4.tar.xz
/data/leaf/devel/leaf.new/bering-uclibc/tools/setup-builddir: line 134:
${filetype,,}: bad substitution
Error: unable to read the top-level directory of 'linux-3.4.tar.xz'
make: *** [.source] Error 1
make: Leaving directory
`/data/leaf/devel/leaf.new/bering-uclibc/source/i486-unknown-linux-uclibc/linux'
looking at the corresponding shell code I find
case ${filetype,,} in # convert to lowercase
My shell appears not to recognize the {$xxx,,} notation (neither do I)
Removing the offending construct leads to
Unrecognized file format of 'linux-3.4.tar.xz'
Well that is pretty obvious, as the file utility just returns
linux-3.4.tar.xz: data
So the finding of the file utility is not really satisfying. I am not a
friend of determining a file type by suffix, I don't know how the file
utility does it.
Anyway, kernel.org has in their great wisdom decided to use a new
format, shame on them. It breaks compatibility in many places.
cheers
