  Hi,
 
  Me again.  Thanks already for all the help I got!  I ran into some more
  errors while running make for GCC.
 
  configure: error: in `/sources/gcc-build/i686-pc-linux-gnu/libgcc':
  configure: error: C preprocessor /lib/cpp fails sanity check
  See `config.log' for more details.

  Look at the *latest* config.log, perhaps in a libgcc directory.
 In that, look for fails sanity check than look for the error
 message(s) in the stanza before that (at a rough guess, the
 message that matters is somewhere within the 100 lines before
 'fails sanity check'.

Fails sanity check is in none of the config.log files to be found.
I do get a lot of errors due to variables being non-declared or conflicting
declarations and such.  Could the error be in my libraries?

  If had understood that was the error message.
Somehow, I seem to have misunderstood you.

 As I said to someone else only the other day,
configure scripts generate a lot of apparent
errors - that is normal.

 The general procedure if the configure fails
is to find the newest config.log (if configure
was running in a subdirectory when it failed),
look for the reported error, then look at the
output just before that, searching for error
messages.

LFS svn-20091012, 4.3 adding the lfs user

2009-11-10 Thread Philippe Delavalade
Hi.

Two weeks ago I tried to install LFS svn-20091012 on a computer with no
internet connection... So my questions won't be very precise because I
forgot one error message :-(

The host was debian squeeze.

Fisrt in 4.3 and 4.4, I didn't get the correct prompt although I used the
-k /dev/null option in useradd ; .bash_profile was conform to 4.4. But my
$PS1 was in fact '\...@\h:\w$ '. What to think about this ?

Second, in 5.14, make install failed but I cann't remember the error
message, maybe sothing like 'machine failure'...

I stopped installing but I shall try another time in some months when I'm
back to this holidays computer.

And third, on that machine with no internet, is it possible to avoid
installing packages which deal with networking as iana, inetutils or
iproute ?

Thanks for help and advices.

you can install those without internet.
just download everything, or use the livCD that
has all the packages on it.
