[lfs-support] Many certitudes and some doubt

2011-12-02 Thread Giorgio Cittadini
Today I began my second approach to LFS: I'm trying to build a pure 64 
bit OS based on the kernel 3.1.4.
The first approach (sufficiently smooth and fully successful) was from 
and for a 32 bit OS.
The version of the book being used is 7.0. The host distribution is 
Ubuntu version 64 bit 11.10 (it was necessary to complementary install 
bison, gawk and texinfo). The output from the Section “Host System 
Requirements” presented the well known error /lib/libc.so.6: no such 
file or directory. This happens - I think - since in my Ubuntu the 
libc.so.6 is not directly positioned under /lib, but under its 
subdirectory /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu, so as libc-2.13.so.
I was able to correct the error in two ways: (i) simply copying the 
libc.so.6 into /lib; (2) creating, as suggested by a recent 
lfs-support message (20/1/2011), a symlink ln -s 
/lib/x86_64-linux/gnu/libc-2.13.so /lib/libc.so.6.
First: I don't understand the relationship between this two libraries; 
Second: are the two ways equivalent as regards my future buildings?
Many thanks for a kind answer.

I wouldn't worry about that. What the script is doing is checking that
your host has a recent glibc, which it does. I'm sorry that an error in
the script has confused you. It's nothing to worry about.
