@stosss Oops! Sorry - LFS 6.5 on Ubuntu 9.4. So far as I am aware, I am carrying out the instructions as given in the book, in the order given. I am not deviating - well, intentionally, anyway.
@Aditya & Andrew Perl is installed, but going back over what I did, there may well be a problem here. When I patched, all did not go smoothly (terminal output attached at bottom), however, the configure/make/install seemed to go OK. The only thing I can think of is that the perl tarball is perl-5.10.1 rather than 5.10.0. It was downloaded from the link in chapter 3.2, but I'll go back and find 5.10.0 and try again. Many thanks for all your help, David l...@david-laptop:/mnt/lfs/sources/perl-5.10.1$ patch -Np1 -i ../perl-5.10.0-consolidated-1.patch patching file hints/linux.sh Hunk #1 succeeded at 63 (offset 3 lines).
