Dear List,
this arose out of LFS Book 6.0
(though the patch I'm patching has apparently
not been changed since).
The 'add tempfile' patch for mktemp-1.5
is pointlessly broken if using a separate build directory.
(I've seen worse - the build instructions for libxml2-2.6.13
are fine for a separate directory for everything except the
testsuite - erm ... - but that's nothing to do with LFS).
Assuming that you aren't actually
allergic to separate build directories (me, I use them
whenever I can), I suggest modifying the patch file
mktemp-1.5-add_tempfile-1.patch:
where it says
+install-tempfile: tempfile
+ $(INSTALL) -m 0555 tempfile $(bindir)/tempfile
have instead
+install-tempfile: $(srcdir)/tempfile
+ $(INSTALL) -m 0555 $(srcdir)/tempfile $(bindir)/tempfile
All right, if you *insist* ... here's a diff you can give to 'patch':
diff -ru mktemp-1.5-add_tempfile-1.patch.old mktemp-1.5-add_tempfile-1.patch
