Since it might be of interest to Denys too (since he uses
http://landley.net/aboriginal toolchains to do the prebuilt busybox
binaries):

My old last gplv2 release of everything toolchain broke 4 times in the
4.4 and 4.5 kernels (arm, mips, sh4, and powerpc all broke in different
ways), so the project's been on hold at the 4.3 kernel for a few months now.

To replace the internal toolchain in aboriginal Linux I'm looking at
moving to clang+llvm (which is in decent shape) and lld.llvm.org (which
isn't). So that's still a ways off.

In the meantime, I'm using Rich Felker's
https://github.com/richfelker/musl-cross-make which uses current
gcc/binutils versions to build musl compilers, and can finally build
_native_ compilers (which is something none of the other toolchain build
projects ever bothered to do). I'm fiddling with the Aboriginal Linux
build so I can use musl-cross-make to replace the simple-cross-compiler
and native-compiler stages, and should write up instructions how to do
that in the next weekend or two.

This means I'm leaving uClibc behind, but given it hasn't had a release
in over 4 years, that's probably for the best. (I'm aware of uclibc-ng
but consider it too little too late.)

It also means I won't be distributing toolchain binaries (I don't do
GPLv3 unless there's a large corporate entity's legal department
standing between me and Bradley/Stallman). But if Rich wants to host
them somewhere in a compatible format I'll happily point to those, and
walk him through the squashfs packaging for the native compilers if he's
interested. So I _should_ still be able to provide native development
environments you don't have to compile yourself if you don't want to. :)

And it means the sparc and m68k targets aren't supported until somebody
ports musl-libc to them. But I should be able to add armv7 and arm64 and
ppc64 and microblaze and get mips64 working again and maybe look into
this "or1k" thing?

Otherwise, I'm still working my way through
http://lists.landley.net/pipermail/toybox-landley.net/2016-June/008484.html
and replacing all the busybox commands used by
http://lists.j-core.org/pipermail/j-core/2016-May/000171.html with
toybox ones, and grinding away at http://landley.net/toybox/roadmap.html
towards 1.0. Plus the
http://j-core.org stuff.

You know, the usual.

lol it does seem to work just fine though.  I made a wrapper script so

Re: make menuconfig deps

[David Henderson]

Hey Stephen!  The version of gcc I'm using is actually 5.2.0 and I
don't think the OS is configured incorrectly, that's just how TC was
designed to run.  Instead of installing packages in a traditional
means like Debian, TC uses squashfs files and symlinks its contents to
the /usr/local/ area of the system.  I haven't had any issues with
compiling other software, just the BB source.  Thanks for the info
though!

Re: make menuconfig deps

[David Henderson]

Hmmm, I'll have to try that next time to see if it works for me.  I'm
using glibc at the moment since that is what TinyCoreLinux uses (and
our fork of that OS - XiniX), but long term I have plans to move to
musl (which is why I asked Rob Landley how his projects were coming).
That's just more work than I can do at the moment with all the other
odds and ends of forking.

Thanks,

Re: make menuconfig deps

[Stephen Beckwith]

I ran into a similar issue with menuconfig not finding ncurses library as
well.  After talking with IT folks, we used HOSTCC='gcc -Wl, -llibtinfo' to
get it to work - initially - the menu was "horrible". . . .
After some debugging of other problems, I discovered that there were 2
different compilers available on our systems:
path1:  GCC 4.2.1 - which had the problems
path2:  GCC 4.4.7 - which solved this and other problems.
So it might be that the linux distro being used is not quite setup
correctly  Or it's a very old compiler?
My situation is that the IT folks have tried to turn a Linux distro
(RHEL6.4) into a BSD Variant-looking-messed-up-sort-of-thing. . . .
NEVER had an issue running on FedoraCore22 in a VM on my MAC :)

Stephen

Ah!  That's obnoxiously obscure, but probably better than my trick of

Sorry, I'm getting confused with my library-finding tricks.
LD_LIBRARY_PATH is for runtime.  This trick works for me (tested)
with ncurses in a non-standard location:

$ make menuconfig HOSTCC="gcc -L/usr/local/lib -lncurses"

But long-term, you might want to teach your compiler about libraries
in /usr/local/lib.  I'm using musl, so I use /etc/ld-musl-i386.path,
glibc is I think /etc/ld.so.conf.

HTH,

That should do.  I'm noticing that it's in /usr/local/lib, which 
might not be in your search path.  Does this work?

$ export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH
$ make menuconfig

Re: make menuconfig deps

[Laurent Bercot]

 Kbuild, be it the kernel's or busybox, assumes that ncurses is available
in /usr or /usr/local, and nowhere else. To override those assumptions if
your ncurses package isn't installed in a "standard" location, you need
a few workarounds, as in manual make variables.

 My hand-built ncurses is installed in /opt/ncurses (.../include and .../lib).
For it to be found, I invoke make menuconfig this way:

 make menuconfig \
HOST_EXTRACFLAGS='-I/opt/ncurses/include -DKBUILD_NO_NLS 
-DCURSES_LOC=""' \
HOST_LOADLIBES='-L/opt/ncurses/lib -static -lncurses'

 Yes, that's HOST_LOADLIBES with an 'E'.
 Replace /opt/ncurses with the full path to your ncurses installation.
 Feel free to remove -static if you're using glibc and/or don't mind
configuring your dynamic linker so that it knows how to find your
libncurses.so library.

You are correct.  I need the qt and kmod for compiling a kernel.  Thanks

So in theory you do have one.

These are just warnings, you should be able to ignore them.

[ snip many more 'undefined references'... ]

'wmove' (and most -- maybe all -- of the other undefined references)
come from the curses library.  Compilation worked, so the header files
were found, but the linker couldn't find the libcurses.so library file.

If you run:

find / -name '*curses*' | xargs ls -ld

what's the output?

Re: make menuconfig deps

[David Henderson]

Good morning Rich, thanks for the response.  I have ncurses-dev
already installed.  I'm surprised BB required qt and kmod dev packages
installed to use the menuconfig.  I don't recall installing those
packages before when I recompiled BB.  Tinycore does have a qt-dev
package, but no kmod...

Thanks,
Dave

In Centos 7 I've found I need to add qt-devel, kmod-devel, and
ncurses-devel for the functions I need to compile in busybox.  I believe
the ncurses-devel was required to use 'make menuconfig'.

That's not a failure to find collect2, that's an error message returned
_from_ collect2, saying its attempt to link couldn't find symbols the
program referred to.

Googling for delwin found:

http://linux.die.net/man/3/delwin

And it's a curses function. Looks like it's not finding the curses
library, although if it attempted to link a library that it couldn't
find that would yet again have been in the part of the error output you
didn't include (further up).

Re: make menuconfig deps

[David Henderson]

Hey Rob, thanks for getting back to me on this!  How's all your projects going?

I'm currently using TinyCoreLinux v7.x to compile BB and have not had
problems compiling other software such as ssmtp, sshpass, wmctrl,
dvb-apps, etc so there isn't a problem with compiling per se which is
why I'm left scratching my head.  Some other errors I'm getting are
'undefined reference to ...' along with the collect2 error message.
I've checked that binutils are installed.  Some package seems like it
is missing, I just have no clue which one.  Thoughts?

Thanks,
Dave

It would be simpler to help, if you paste complete output of the
error messages you get. It's the second time you cut off the
interesting part of the error.

collect2 is a wrapper around ld that handles C++ global initializers.
It's been part of binutils for over a decade, and should be in your
$PATH if you have binutils installed.

What toolchain are you using, and can it build and run "hello world"?
