I'm obviously out of the loop on building toolchains, but the most recent ICA issues with gcc was that a checksum of the .o files was built into the gcc binary. Since DIY uses LDFLAGS="-s", the .o files are stripped as they're linked. The checksum for the .o files is then always the same since the debug symbols are gone when the checksum is taken. In LFS, the stripping is always done after the fact, but by then the checksum has been built into the binary. But, that was a couple releases ago. -- Dan -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/faq/ Unsubscribe: See the above information page
