Anybody else ran into this problem?
Hmmm, what shell is your /bin/sh? We try to use bash in most places. Where
exactly does this occur?
[ABE] [erwin@centos62vm os]$ ls -l /bin/sh
lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 4 Jan 25 13:43 /bin/sh -> bash
GNU bash, version 4.1.2(1)-release (x86_64-redhat-linux-gnu)
It occurred during building a ARM toolchain. At some point it does some
magic with a whole load of include files, and those files are passed
with their absolute path name.
I fixed it by shortening the path in the following way;
-PTXCONF_PLATFORM="${PTXCONF_GNU_TARGET}-${PTXCONF_PREFIX_TCID}"
+PTXCONF_PLATFORM="${PTXCONF_GNU_TARGET}"
The path was;
/home/erwin/ABE/projects/arm-tegra2_hardfloat-linux-gnueabi/master/Toolchain/platform-arm-tegra2_hardfloat-linux-gnueabi-gcc-4.6.2-glibc-2.14.1-binutils-2.21.1a-kernel-2.6.39-sanitized/
And now is;
/home/erwin/ABE/projects/arm-tegra2_hardfloat-linux-gnueabi/master/Toolchain/platform-arm-tegra2_hardfloat-linux-gnueabi/
and that seems to make the difference. On a other machine where the
/home/erwin/ part is longer it fails in the same way with a
arm-tegra2-linux-gnueabi (without _hardfloat part).
It seems the setup is really stretching the limits of the system. It
might be an idea to shortening the PTXCONF_PLATFORM part in the
Toolchain project by default.
