2010-12-23 Thread Mike


Hi
I seem to be stuck at the gmp configure stage
 ABI=32 ./configure --prefix=/usr --enable-cxx --enable-mpbsd

configure: error: could not find a working compiler, see config.log for 
details

Now up til now its has had no problem finding gcc
I am in /sources/gmp-5.0.1  directory.
This is a x86_64 dual core so I am trying to use the ABI=32 option.
I must have something wrong but I don't see what.
Any suggestios?  I tried deleteing the directory and starting over with 
this one but got the same thing.

If I understand it correctly I need to use the abi=32 env arg

Your problem is that you are building an Pure64 bit system, and on
that system, that arg makes no sense.

Remove ABI=32 from configure and run it again.

Yes it will compile like that but will it be able to run on pure 32-bit 
system i.e. not x86-64. If I understood it correctly that option was to 
make it so it would.
Thanks for your reply and help.  I started this about a year ago and 
decided I needed to learn quite a bit more in particular about shell 
scripting so I left the idea and studied quite a bit.  It has been worth 
it for this alone.

 Iff you have built everything up to this point as 32-bit, you
should not have a problem specifying ABI=32.  It sounds as if you
have been building a 64-bit system until you got to gmp.

 I don't understand why you would care if the completed LFS system
will run on a 32-bit processor ?  If you wish to build something
that you can install onto 32-bit i686 hardware, then build the
32-bit version of the book, but in all honesty we recommend that you
build it on the machine on which it will run.

 And please note that LFS is either 32 or 64 bit - we don't support
multilib.

Error in 6.7. Linux-2.6.35.4 API Headers

2010-12-23 Thread Muruganand Karthikeyan
Hi All,

I'm facing an error in 6.7 linux API headers specifically the step

make headers_check

I get the following error:

CHK include/linux/version.h
UPD include/linux/version.h
HOSTCC  scripts/basic/fixdep
gcc: error trying to exec
'/tools/lib/gcc/i686-pc-linux-gnu/4.5.1/../../../../i686-pc-linux-gnu/bin/as':
execv: No such file or directory
make[1]: *** [scripts/basic/fixdep] Error 1
make: *** [scripts_basic] Error 2

There are a whole lot of previous posts with the exact same error. But
a resolution was not posted. I've checked my GCC/Binutils compile logs
and they seem to be alright. The sanity tests passed as well. So I've
kind of hit a dead end here. Any help is much appreciated.

Thanks,
Anand

  Iff you have built everything up to this point as 32-bit, you
 should not have a problem specifying ABI=32.  It sounds as if you
 have been building a 64-bit system until you got to gmp.
There was two reasons actually.
1 - The section at the beginning of the lfs book seemed to indicate
  one would be better off with a 32-bit build.  That is it is more 
stable, bette
r tested, and so forth.  While I might not agree fully these are good 
points to
consider and muse upon.
2 - Yes the thought had cross my mind since I have a few different syste
  all x86 to build clone many but I guess I should stick to the point, 
that this
  is meant to be a learn experence.

You know off the subject now, I would also like to explain to who ever 
thought
html mail is such a great idea at my service provider a small personal 
rant ever
time I have to use this style of email.Not haveing a cursor is just the 
start.

In any case the point is moot since on this final pass gcc is failing 
miserable
  at the make -k check stage(error 2).  I guess I will again have to 
start over.
  I have found that cutting and pasting at least from the pdf version 
has caused some
   errors.  What made it so apparrent was the locale section where it 
split all the
  first words out (localedef - ) and then after the 10 or 12 localedef 
it then pasted all the endings.
Any way to all who have help much much thanks is given.
  and then pasted all the rest of the commands last.

  I don't understand why you would care if the completed LFS system
 will run on a 32-bit processor ?  If you wish to build something
 that you can install onto 32-bit i686 hardware, then build the
 32-bit version of the book, but in all honesty we recommend that you

  And please note that LFS is either 32 or 64 bit - we don't support
 multilib.
