hi,
not sure where to send this (lfs.support of alfs.discuss), followup goes
to lfs.support
i'm building lfs-6.0 using nALFS and the latest profile from svn. the
build fails in section 5.25 when ncurses is being configured,
complaining about sort:
cat curses.head >curses.h
AWK=mawk sh ./MKkey_defs.sh ./Caps >>curses.h
./MKkey_defs.sh: line 60: 2003 Illegal instruction sort -k 6 $DATA
>$data 2>/dev/null
./MKkey_defs.sh: line 60: 2004 Illegal instruction sort -n +5 $DATA
>$data 2>/dev/null
Your sort utility is broken. Please install one that works.
this is a know issue caused by glibc>=2.3.2 and coreutils, but it
shouldn't happen because there is a workaround (building coreutils using
"DEFAULT_POSIX2_VERSION=199209 ./configure --prefix=/tools") and this
workaround is in the lfs profile. hence the coreutils build in section
5.16 should be ok, and sort should work as expected.
clearly there's something going wrong. i'm thinking it has to do
something with the way nALFS handles environment variables, but then
nobody but me has ever had this problem with the profile. or is there
something else i've done wrong?
forgot to mention that my host system is running ubuntu warty
