[lfs-support] creating binutils-build again
Hi, Version 7.5-rc1 In 5.5. GCC-4.8.2 - Pass 1, the book reads mkdir -v ../binutils-build, then in 5.9. Binutils-2.24 - Pass 2, the book reads Create a separate build directory again: mkdir -v ../binutils-build. There is confusion about whether the binutils-build directory created in pass 1 should be removed before pass 2, or if it's OK to do pass 2 with the existing binutils-build from pass 1.

GCC-4.8.2 - Pass 1, the book reads mkdir -v ../binutils-build, No it doesn't: it says 'mkdir -v ../gcc-build' ; gcc-pass2 says same. Binutils-pass1 says 'mkdir -v ../binutils-build' ; binutils-pass2 says same. then in 5.9. Binutils-2.24 - Pass 2, the book reads Create a separate build directory again: mkdir -v ../binutils-build. There is confusion about whether the binutils-build directory created in pass 1 should be removed before pass 2, or if it's OK to do pass 2 with the existing binutils-build from pass 1. Thank you, You might get away with it if you have left the respective '../-build' directories _completely_ empty between their respective pass1 pass2. But to be on safe side - you're building particularly intricate and interrelated software at especially that stage of the book - , follow the book: Ref: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/view/development/chapter05/generalinstructions.html#buildinstr Per that ref, Unless instructed otherwise: After each package page, remove the unpacked/untarred source directory (and thus all of its contents too; and thus also anything that has been generated inside it during the configure/build/install), and any separate build directory (and thus all of its contents too). So for (the spirit of) your particular question: remove those '../-build' directories after their pass1, and make fresh dir at each respective pass2. rgds, akh -- Waitman Gobble San Jose California USA +1.510-830-7975 -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page -- -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
