------- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2005-12-22 23:21 ------- (In reply to comment #3) Just went through the documentation again...here's the list again, with some corrections... bash binutils >= 2.13 bzip2 >= 1.0.2 coreutils diffutils >= 2.7 findutils >= 4.1.20 gawk >= 3.0 gcc >= 3.0 glibc grep gzip >= 1.2.4 make >= 3.79.1 patch >= 2.5.4 perl 5 (though glibc says perl is only needed if running the testsuite, and gcc says it's just needed if modifying the source code) sed >= 4.0 tar >= 1.12 I know the book lists m4 as a dependency for binutils, but I don't see where it's using it. I renamed /usr/bin/m4 temporarily, and it built successfully, and the testsuite ran without a single failure. The only place I see m4 mentioned in the toolchain package docs is for gcc, and that's only listed as being needed if you're modifying the source code. BTW does anyone know where to find any kind of documentation on binutils? The source tarball has virtually nothing as far as installation instructions and building prerequisites - just generic instructions (basically just "run ./configure --options && make && make install..."). ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug, or are watching the assignee.
