Hi Paul, this doesn't sound like a common problem. AFAICS, when a builder gets to bzip2 of 7.10 in chroot the source is a .tar.gz and so the problem would bite there (and also with acl and attr - all are built before we rebuild gzip2) if it was common. More generally, ldd /tools/bin/gzip in case that is linked to the host system. (the old 'Any No Such File or Directory' which used to be in the FAQ - maybe it still is. ĸen -- Error: ( : 1) not enough arguments Don't you just love Tiny scheme ? -- http://lists.linuxfromscratch.org/listinfo/lfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page Do not top post on this list.
