Bruce,

Ran the chmod command and got

sudo chmod -R lfs.lfs $LFS/sources
[sudo] password for lfs:
Sorry, user lfs is not allowed to execute '/bin/chmod -R lfs.lfs
/mnt/lfs/sources' as root on phoenix.

Something fundamentally broken I think.  I originally downloaded the
sources onto the host, before i started to configure lfs, then copied
them across to $LFS/sources when that had been created.  I think that
maybe I should run chmod on all the files in $LFS/sources, but the
message above seems to preclude that?

Thanks for your time

Jack

No, that just means that the lfs user doesn't have sudo rights, as it shouldn't. Just do an "ls -l ../mpfr-*" to check permissions on that file. Also, it has absolutely no relation to anything with GCC, GMP, or MPC. It just means the mpfr tarball has restrictive permissions. Plus, that suggested command is wrong. It should be "chown lfs:lfs $LFS/sources/*".
