hello community, i just want to report about successful build of lfs system with new gcc-4.3.0 for those who might be interesred.
i still don't know how it all will go on with blfs stuff, but for the moment i have basic multilib x86-64 system with gpm, alsa & midnight commander, and everything works just fine. so, about the bulding procedure. i mainly followed the development lfs/clfs books, with some additions & modifications. since gcc-4.3.0 requires gpm & mpfr libraries for its build, and that's obligatory, i added static versions of these libraries (configured with --disable-shared option) just after binutils-pass1 and before gcc-pass1. for some obscure reasons, gcc configure script could not find gmp/mpfr stuff, so i additionally used configure options --with-gmp-lib=/tools/lib64 --with-mpfr-lib=/tools/lib64 --with-gmp-include=/tools/include --with-mpfr-include=/tools/include, and with those everything began to work. after building and installing glibc and before binutils/gcc-pass2, i additionally reinstalled gmp/mpfr (as shared libraries this time) /* and also added garbage collector (gc) and some other stuff that allows me to build gcc-pass2 with objc & java enabled */. the whole system, except for binutils & gcc, is built with -O3 -march=athlon64 optimizations. for the moment, i don't have any problems. so, if you want to test new shiny gcc yourself, you can try :) -- sex, freeride, open source! -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
