In a fresh svn build yesterday, I get no errors at all.  You've cut down

gcc -Ignulib -I./gnulib -I. -I./include -I./gnulib -I./include -Wall -W

grub_mkelfimage-gnulib_progname.o gnulib/progname.c

But I'm not sure if your error is in a compile or a link.  However the 
link completed without error for me too:

gcc -o grub-mkelfimage grub_mkelfimage-gnulib_progname.o

Re: compiling packages in sec 5

 Hi all, I hope this isn't a silly question...
 
 it's not quite clear to me one thing: why the the gcc cross compiler
 created in sec 5.5 isn't used for the compilation of the packages in
 section 5 (something like ./configure CC=$LFS_TGT-gcc)? Since the
 path is set to /tools/bin:/bin:/usr/bin the gcc and cc executables
 used during compilation is the one created during the second pass,
 wouldn't this break if the build and the host system aren't the same?

The entire set of tools built in Chapter 5 need to be built
by one and the same set of dev tools, in order to ensure that
they all work together and agree on what formats are, etc.

Just like horses, one shouldn't change compilers in mid stream.

JHALFS Incompatibilities

2011-04-20 Thread Mike McCarty
I'm using a VM (qemu) to build LFS v 6.8. I'm using the LFS LiveCD
as my build system. I've partitioned and formatted my disc,
and successfully booted the LiveCD. I've downloaded jhalfs-2.3.2
(I understand the one on the LiveCD jhalfs-2.3.1 is broken) and
started setting up my directory structure. Here it is:

/media/lfsbuild directory
/media/BOOK   book, v 6.8 XML extracted
/media/jhalfs jhalfs-2.3.2 extracted
/media/archiveplace to put the archived downloads
/media/sourcesplace to put the sources for build

All the directories are writable by the jhalfs user.

I've gone into jhalfs and and done a make, and tried to
set up the configuration. However, when I do a make, I go
through the menu, and upon exit, jhalfs mostly likes it,
but complains that the jhalfs directory and the build directory
conflict. I've given /media/lfs as the build directory, and
used the directory structure mentioned in README. However,
jhalfs doesn't like it. If I rename jhalfs to jhalfs-2.3.2
and create another directory jhalfs, then the tool complains
that other necessary directores underneath jhalfs don't
exist. They appear to be directories in the jhalfs-2.3.2
directory, and appear to contain support scripts.

What I've done before is extract the tarball twice, once
into jhalfs-2.3.2 and once into jhalfs. This doesn't seem
right.

What clue am I missing?

When you go into the VM, extract jhalfs to your /home directory (the 
name doesn't matter).  Run from there.  jhalfs should create 
/mnt/lfs/{jhalfs,sources}.  I tell it not to mess with sources and then 
just copy them manually to /mnt/lfs/sources, because I sometimes make 
changes there.

Another easy way is to get the lfs-wget file and do:

cd /mnt/lfs/sources; wget -i ~/lfs-wget

I described what happens. It complains that the directory

scripts, doesn't exist. It does not create them.

Here's the exact error message when I did just what you describe:

LFS/master.sh: line 382: cd: /media/lfs/jhalfs/lfs-commands: No such 
file or directory.

THAT'S the problem I was reporting. The directory structure does not
get created, and jhalfs expects it to exist, and to contain the
support scripts which come from the tarball.

In past, a couple of times, I've extracted the tarball twice
to overcome this problem.

 Another easy way is to get the lfs-wget file and do:
 
 cd /mnt/lfs/sources; wget -i ~/lfs-wget

Where is the wget-list for 6.8? I haven't found it.

Yes, it,s a little touchy.  You can get that when it's creating /tools, etc.
too.
Just delete the old stuff and start over.  The program is not very tolerant

 Just delete the old stuff and start over.  The program is not very tolerant
 of errors and variations, but once you get it work the way you want, it's
 handy.

Are you familiar with the term finite state deterministic machine?

If run again, with no other changes, it produces the same results.

I believe that jhalfs-2.3.2 is -broken- and does not work. Perhaps
the one in svn does? Which one do you use?

I did what you suggest five times, and each time I got the
same error in the same place. I then downloaded using svn,
and ran that one, and got the same error in the same place.

svn said I checked out version 3535, whatever that means.

In any case, jhalfs is broken.
