Hi all,

I have intermediate-level skills with Linux in general but have never built anything from source before (except my own simple programs), so I would very much appreciate help with the following issue! :-)

Book version: 8.3
Host distro/version: Running Kubuntu 18.04.1 LTS in a VirtualBox VM on Windows 10
Output from version_check.sh: All tests pass
Package/Section the problem was encountered in: Chapter 5.5.1: Installation of Cross GCC
The exact error message or symptom being received:

I have no idea what that "ELF section name out of range" error means, and Google has not provided much help. One link suggested that I may be running out of disk space, but my virtual hard drive is set to dynamically expand, and the physical host has 15 GB free space :S

MTIA! :D
