binutils [II]

2011-08-06 Thread Bill Cunningham
The latest LFS livecd has binutils 2.17 which is require to build 
glibc-2.13 but when I try to run the configure script it tells me that the 
assembler is too old? Huh?

And this is why we build our own copies of Binutils and GCC before Glibc.
Word of advice: FBBG, and don't mix LFS versions. It's as disastrous as
mixing water and acid, except not as harmful to you.

Mixing versions? What is FBBG?

FYI: It really helps if you actually understand us and the list, and the
book.

FBBG = Follow Book, Book Good

I said you were mixing versions because you were building Glibc 2.13 (LFS
6.8) with Binutils 2.17 (LFS 6.3). In the book, you are supposed to build
temporary copies of Binutils and GCC before building Glibc.

Again, FBBG.
