[lfs-support] LFS 7.0 release, Building on Debian 5 host build system...

2011-11-29 Thread David Scott Williams
When building and installing (6.9) the glibc ... what test errors are 
acceptable?  What are the guidelines for determining quirkiness vs. 
woops, I screwed up ?

For example, the following error (and a refusal to finish the make) .. 
I assume to be bad:
make[2]: *** [/sources/glibc-build/elf/noload-mem] Error 127 Scratch

I am in the process of doing it again (re-patch/etc..) and see what 
happens.  I am building on a 2.6.32 kernel, and I might very well have 
left the 2.6.25 in the copied shell command...

However, I was just wondering what tests, when they fail, are FAIL 
rather than fail;)  :) ?

I just checked through the section of Glibc source code and I believe 
glibc-2.14.1/manual/Makefile line 110 is where it goes wrong for you. 
The line in question contains: $(PERL) $ $$pwd/..  libm-err-tmp

The $(PERL) variable seems to have expanded into no which likely will 
be traced back during an error encountered during the configure script 
where it tried to detect perl and failed.

There is a second issue: notice the last line in your output:
 I have no name!:/sources/glibc-build#

I have no name! is significant here. This is caused by the system not 
knowing who you are - usually because of a missing /etc/passwd file. 
This step is handled in Section 6.6 of the book Creating Essential 
Files and Symlinks.

If this step was missed, perhaps you missed a couple of other steps in 
the same beginnings of Chapter 6 that led to Glibc's failure. Some of 
those core system files will definitely trip up a configure script. The 
files are simply assumed to always exist without exception and error 
checking for their absence often doesn't exist or is poorly done.

If in doubt, perhaps start Chapter 6 from the beginning again assuming 
Chapter 5 was done correctly.

In the KERNEL Simon, in the KERNEL, NOT the driver.

Also, come to think of it, I didn't find the BUG, it found me! :)

Speaking of drama, don't you think that for a KERNEL to mess up the return from
graphics, so badly and inexcusably as of 3.x and end of 2011,
that's pretty dramatic (and sad)?

Thank you for your comments.  Keep the faith.  Only 14 more years.

Glibc was installed in Chapter 5 and the /

Re: [lfs-support] It's baaaaack! Libmpfr not found in gcc make.

 So the last time I had this problem a couple of weeks ago, it occurred only 
 in the second pass of the gcc build.
 Now it occurs in the first pass. And unlike last time, it hasn't magically 
 disappeared.
 
 Having trashed the partition with my host LFS system on it, I'm using Xubuntu 
 11.04 as the host this time.
 But that's unlikely to be the problem given this occurred back with LFS 6.8 
 as host too.
 
 To recap: I can create the filesystem okay and install the binutils tool 
 (first pass). Doing gcc, the configure
 appears to go okay but then the make quits after a while, with
 
 configure: error: libmpfr not found or uses a different ABI.

Follow the book:

These are from 5.3. General Compilation Instructions

tar -xf gcc.tarball
cd gcc-4.6.2 -- you probably missed this.

The most general recommendation for the first few times is do things

In David's defense I can understand his point too. If all the book says 
is to remove the I have no name! prompt then I can see where that 
sounds like it's not all that significant. In our defense, passwd and 
group files are core/essential Linux files that no *NIX system lives 
without so we also make our assumptions that certain things are just 
understood by Linux users.

It's definitely a bit of a grey area. Cleaning up the text a bit would 
not necessarily be a bad thing either (not to be confused with excessive 
hand-holding but have it be more correct as there are additional reasons 
beyond that I have no name prompt although that's probably the most 
visible of reasons).

Awesome, glad you got it working. In the end no harm done and tons 
learned, which is exactly what we aim to provide with the LFS project. 
In the end all these seemingly frustrating issues just helped you 
accomplish the larger goal. And it helps validate that the book's 
instructions remain valid and correct which is always a good peer-review 
in a way.

 Technically, it *is* cosmetic - I don't do it within my own
chroot script.  Anyway, you've found the reason for your perl error.

 But, for glibc (and many other packages) it is worth remarking that
'make check' creates files along the way (its dependencies) which
prevent the tests that have run from rerunning when you next invoke
it.

 And *please* don't top post.

 In David's defense I can understand his point too. If all the book says 
 is to remove the I have no name! prompt then I can see where that

 group files are core/essential Linux files that no *NIX system lives 
 without so we also make our assumptions that certain things are just 
 understood by Linux users.
 
 It's definitely a bit of a grey area. Cleaning up the text a bit would 
 not necessarily be a bad thing either (not to be confused with excessive 
 hand-holding but have it be more correct as there are additional reasons 
 beyond that I have no name prompt although that's probably the most 
 visible of reasons).

 To clarify my response just now - starting a new shell is optional,
clearly the passwd and group files are required.

 loading configuration from ‘/etc/bind/named.conf’

It seems like rndc.key is included twice?



 Here is my configuration from my named.conf file:



 Include “/etc/bind/named.conf.options”;

 Include “/etc/bind/named.conf.local”;

 Include “/etc/bind/named.conf.default-zones”;

Perhaps rndc.key is included by one of the above config files too?


 Include “/etc/bind/rndc.key”;


Cheers,

It looks like the problem is in /etc/bind/rndc.key. Can we see that?
(obscure the secret).
