As best I can tell it's not related to these. Actually my awk does -> mawk. What's a better choice for LFS, gawk? I tried running with awk->gawk and didn't see much different. But as you say, I think I'm past the point where that would matter. Instead, what seems to be going on is that my ld.so.cache is old. The last time ld.so.cache is generated for me is in step 6.9. At that point, zlib isn't yet installed, so, obviously ldconfig won't find any version of the library. When zlib is installed in step 6.11, it doesn't seem to be running ldconfig, like it should. I tried grepping through the zlib sources, and my step 6.11 make output, and it doesn't seem to be running ldconfig. So, if I dump the cache right at the beginning of step 6.12: root:/# ls -l /lib/libz* lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 13 Oct 22 04:10 /lib/libz.so.1 -> libz.so.1.2.5 -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 107087 Oct 22 04:10 /lib/libz.so.1.2.5 root:/# root:/# /sbin/ldconfig -p | grep libz root:/# I get nothing - even though libz is in fact installed in the right places, the loader won't find it. And so, in step 6.12, things fail. If, right before step 6.12, I manually run ldconfig, the cache is all better, and step 6.12 runs flawlessly. So, since best I can tell, the libz sources never run ldconfig, I'm sort of stumped on how this could be working for anyone. What did I miss? What does you ldconfig -p show before and after step 6.11 where zlib is installed? Thanks!
