Merde ... no luck.
- wiped all the directories clean ... tools/ & sources/
- fresh extract of binutils from within /mnt/lfs/sources/
- moved into newly-created binutils-2.20.1 directory
- $mkdir ../binutils-build
- $cd ../binutils-build
prepared for compilation
- $../binutils-2.20.1/configure \
--target=$LFS_TGT --prefix=/tools \
--disable-nls --disable-werror
- $make
...... yields the following error messages:
WARNING: `makeinfo' is missing on your system. You should only need it if
you modified a `.texi' or `.texinfo' file, or any other file
indirectly affecting the aspect of the manual. The spurious
call might also be the consequence of using a buggy `make' (AIX,
DU, IRIX). You might want to install the `Texinfo' package or
the `GNU make' package. Grab either from any GNU archive site.
