This looks like virgo's problem at...
http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/msg20545.html
I was pasting from the 7.4 online book into a terminal window.
I got to this point (5.9.1):
*CC=$LFS_TGT-gcc \
AR=$LFS_TGT-ar \
RANLIB=$LFS_TGT-ranlib \
../binutils-2.23.2/configure \
--prefix=/tools \
--disable-nls \
--with-lib-path=/tools/lib \
--with-sysroot*
I selected all of that at once, middle-mouse-pasted it into my
terminal, and hit return.
I had entered many multilined commands this way and all seemed to work.
But this time, like Virgo, I got this error:
*Cannot run C compiled programs *
I repeated all of chapter 5 up to there with the same result.
I studied the situation and found that echo $CC produced a blank line.
So CC was not set. Nor, as I recall, were AR and RANLIB.
So I pasted the lines one at a time with out the backslashes.
And all is well. I don't know why.
