Subject: Re: [lfs-support] where should the package be extracted?
Le 10/09/2014 10:04, Lemon Oil a écrit :
If I do this, I have problem after these 2 commands (page 31):
mkdir -v ../binutils-build
cd ../binutils-build
Then:
../binutils-2.24/configure [blah...]
It returns no file found.
Because there is no /lfs/binutils-2.24 folder
and its contents. The binutils-2.24 folder is on /lfs/sources.

Sorry to have to say that, but people on this list do not like top
posting...
What I wrote was:
Run something like:
tar -xvf tarball-num-version.tar.gz
from the /lfs/sources directory.
Then _cd to the extracted directory_.
So when you extract binutils, you first have to change dir to
binutils-2.24, and then, the command you run are OK.
It may seem weird to have to change first to the extracted directory,
then almost immediately change to another one, but it happenned in the past
that binutils needed to be patched, so some commands had to be run from
inside the extracted directory. Currently, there is no need for a patch, but
the same scheme is used for gcc and glibc at least.

Hi,
I'm sorry for the previous reply format. I hope this is right.
I'm on /lfs/sources, I run these commands:
tar -xvf tarball-num-version.tar.gz
cd tarball-num-version
mkdir -v ../binutils-build
cd ../binutils-build
../binutils-2.24/configure [blah...]
No file found
So, Should I run these?
tar -xvf tarball-num-version.tar.gz
cd tarball-num-version
mkdir -v ../binutils-build
cd ../binutils-build
cd /lfs/sources/tarball-num-version
../binutils-2.24/configure [blah...]
Adding the 5th line (cd /lfs/sources/tarball-num-version)?
Regards,
LM
