janneke pushed a commit to branch wip-bootstrap in repository guix. commit 622c80bdef53f779dfa71ddb5ce18014b00df4b3 Author: Jan Nieuwenhuizen <jann...@gnu.org> Date: Thu Aug 30 06:56:41 2018 +0200
Add new cheat: use %bootstrap-glibc for x86 for now. Our bootstrapped glibc-2.2.5 is barely enough to build gnu-make-boot0, but that needs patching. To build diffutils-boot0 proved even more complicated (no success yet). To build a second glibc-mesboot-2.3.6 (or other versions) is a work in progess, also proves difficult. * gnu/packages/commencement.scm (%bootstrap-inputs+toolchain): Add new cheat: use %bootstrap-glibc. --- gnu/packages/commencement.scm | 3 ++- 1 file changed, 2 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/gnu/packages/commencement.scm b/gnu/packages/commencement.scm index aca46b8..a113134 100644 --- a/gnu/packages/commencement.scm +++ b/gnu/packages/commencement.scm @@ -1639,7 +1639,8 @@ ac_cv_c_float_format='IEEE (little-endian)' (define %bootstrap-inputs+toolchain (append (match (%current-system) - ("i686-linux" `(("libc" ,glibc-mesboot) + ("i686-linux" `(;;("libc" ,glibc-mesboot) ; FIXME: make usable for unpatched gnu-make-boot0, *-boot0 + ("libc" ,%bootstrap-glibc) ("binutils" ,binutils-mesboot) ("gcc" ,gcc-mesboot))) (_ '()))
