I'm stumped.

I'm using LFS 6.0 and my host system is Mandrake 10.1.

Everything has gone without a hitch until I tried to install expect-5.42.1-spawn-1.patch in Section 5.11. The result of

<patch -Np1 -i ../expect-5.42-spawn-1.patch> was
<patch: **** mktemp : Permission denied>

I opened another xconsole, logged in as myself and copied the Expect -5.42.1 tarball and the *-spawn-1 patch to another directory. I then successfully applied the patch. It appears that I've created a "glitch" somewhere in the permissions for user-lfs or that I've missed something in the environment setup somewhere.

I solved it. (?) I had beening logging in as lfs in a "non-login" shell. I need to study the bash man page some more--guess I have a conceptual error. I hope that I haven't screwed up anything in the build.


Sorry to use bandwidth on this.
