This is my first try at LFS and I ran into a problem when trying to make gcc-4.6.2 Pass 1. The error message was:
gtype-desc.c:8893:18: error: subscripted value is neither array nor pointer nor vector gtype-desc.c:9012:36: error: subscripted value is neither array nor pointer nor vector gtype-desc.c:9096:31: error: subscripted value is neither array nor pointer nor vector gtype-desc.c:9117:31: error: subscripted value is neither array nor pointer nor vector gtype-desc.c:9124:31: error: subscripted value is neither array nor pointer nor vector gtype-desc.c:9131:31: error: subscripted value is neither array nor pointer nor vector make[2]: *** [gtype-desc.o] Error 1 make[2]: Leaving directory `/mnt/lfs/sources/gcc-build/gcc' make[1]: *** [all-gcc] Error 2 make[1]: Leaving directory `/mnt/lfs/sources/gcc-build' make: *** [all] Error 2 I am building on an Arch Linux host system which is running the latest versions of each installed package, including gcc-4.7.1-4. A Google search showed that this is a known issue and the solution requires making a simple change [1] to /gcc-4.6.2/gcc/gengtype.c after extracting the package. As I couldn't find any similar posting on this list I am posting this in case it can help others. Thanks for a great project and a fantastic learning experience.
