Hey folks, I'm following the book for education reasons, having 10+ years experience on linux systems as a home user and family administrator.
At chapter 5.5.1. Installation of Cross GCC I have finished preparations an the ./configure script without errors. after running the make script I get the following message when it tries to compile libgcc: ===== Checking multilib configuration for libgcc... mkdir -p -- x86_64-lfs-linux-gnu/libgcc Configuring in x86_64-lfs-linux-gnu/libgcc configure: creating cache ./config.cache checking build system type... x86_64-pc-linux-gnu checking host system type... x86_64-lfs-linux-gnu checking for --enable-version-specific-runtime-libs... no checking for a BSD-compatible install... /bin/install -c checking for gawk... gawk xgcc: fatal error: system path 'tools/lib' is not absolute compilation terminated. checking for x86_64-lfs-linux-gnu-ar... /tools/x86_64-lfs-linux-gnu/bin/ar checking for x86_64-lfs-linux-gnu-lipo... x86_64-lfs-linux-gnu-lipo checking for x86_64-lfs-linux-gnu-nm... /mnt/lfs/sources/gcc-6.2.0/build/./ gcc/nm checking for x86_64-lfs-linux-gnu-ranlib... /tools/x86_64-lfs-linux-gnu/bin/ ranlib checking for x86_64-lfs-linux-gnu-strip... /tools/x86_64-lfs-linux-gnu/bin/ strip checking whether ln -s works... yes checking for x86_64-lfs-linux-gnu-gcc... /mnt/lfs/sources/gcc-6.2.0/build/./ gcc/xgcc -B/mnt/lfs/sources/gcc-6.2.0/build/./gcc/ -B/tools/x86_64-lfs-linux- gnu/bin/ -B/tools/x86_64-lfs-linux-gnu/lib/ -isystem /tools/x86_64-lfs-linux- gnu/include -isystem /tools/x86_64-lfs-linux-gnu/sys-include checking for suffix of object files... configure: error: in `/mnt/lfs/sources/ gcc-6.2.0/build/x86_64-lfs-linux-gnu/libgcc': configure: error: cannot compute suffix of object files: cannot compile See `config.log' for more details. make[1]: *** [Makefile:11903: configure-target-libgcc] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory '/mnt/lfs/sources/gcc-6.2.0/build' make: *** [Makefile:864: all] Error 2 ===== I suspect an error in build environment preparation in chapters 2-4, but everything I checked until now seems okay. When preparing the build environment I followed the recommended values and examples like '/mnt/lfs' for the mount point to prevent further user error. The directory '$LFS/tools/lib' exists. I searched though config.log, but did not find any mention of the path 'tools/lib' I hope someone on this list can point me in the right direction on how to find and resolve the problem. Thank you, Markus
