I suggest you look around that part of config.log, there ought to be a detailed error message for this somewhere nearby. There might also be a lot of other apparent error reports (configure builds and runs program fragments, often to look for things specific to certain operating systems, and their absence will initially be recorded as an error). So, if you are using vim or less, open config.log and use the / key to search (repeatedly), e.g. /cannot compute suffix or if spaces cause trouble /cannot\ compute\ suffix It will probably mention an error with your (lfs) gcc or binutils. ĸen -- Before the universe began, there was a sound.
