No, not a flaw, but without a feature. It means that there is a mismatch in your system between the kernel and the (upstream) glibc build system. Something is being detected when it shouldn't be (or vice versa). Since you are using a fairly old kernel, the problem is really yours. The only way we would be able to get anyone to pay attention is is we were using a recent system to do the build. On my reference build I have gcc nscd.c -c -std=gnu99 -fgnu89-inline -O2 -Wall -Winline -Wwrite-strings -fmerge-all-constants -g -Wstrict-prototypes -DIS_IN_nscd=1 -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2 -fpie -fstack-protector -I../include -I/sources/glibc-build/nscd -I/sources/glibc-build -I../sysdeps/x86_64/elf -I../nptl/sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/x86_64 -I../sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/x86_64 -I../sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/wordsize-64 -I../nptl/sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux -I../nptl/sysdeps/pthread -I../sysdeps/pthread -I../sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux -I../sysdeps/gnu -I../sysdeps/unix/common -I../sysdeps/unix/mman -I../sysdeps/unix/inet -I../nptl/sysdeps/unix/sysv -I../sysdeps/unix/sysv -I../sysdeps/unix/x86_64 -I../nptl/sysdeps/unix -I../sysdeps/unix -I../sysdeps/posix -I../sysdeps/x86_64/fpu -I../nptl/sysdeps/x86_64 -I../sysdeps/x86_64 -I../sysdeps/wordsize-64 -I../sysdeps/ieee754/ldbl-96 -I../sysdeps/ieee754/dbl-64 -I../sysdeps/ieee754/flt-32 -I../sysdeps/ieee754 -I../sysdeps/generic/elf -I../sysdeps/generic -I../nptl -I.. -I../libio -I. -D_LIBC_REENTRANT -include ../include/libc-symbols.h -DNOT_IN_libc=1 -o /sources/glibc-build/nscd/nscd.o -MD -MP -MF /sources/glibc-build/nscd/nscd.o.dt -MT /sources/glibc-build/nscd/nscd.o Without error. As I said earlier, I don't know why this problem appears to be triggered on some systems and not others. Another suggestion would be to download jhalfs and build LFS using that. http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/alfs/. Failure at the same point that you are getting now would rule out errors earlier in the build. -- Bruce -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
