Sincerely, fuf. If you can't install gawk and bison using your distro's package manager it is possible to install them from the source if you compile them as user lfs and install them into /tools. That's what I do when I install from Ubunut. first gawk tar xf gawk-3.1.7.tar.* cd gawk-3.1.7 bash configure --prefix=/tools make SHELL=/bin/bash # ubuntu uses dash for /bin/bash make SHELL=/bin/bash install cd .. rm -rf gawk-3.1.7 Then m4. I think bison needs m4? tar xf m4-1.4.14 cd m4-1.4.14 bash configure --prefix=/tools make make install cd .. rm -rf m4-1.4.14 Then bison tar xf bison-2.4.1 cd bison-2.4.1 bash configure --prefix=/tools make make install cd .. rm -rf bison-2.4.1 You might need flex too tar xf flex-2.5.35.tar.* cd flex-2.5.35 sed -i '/ios/a \ #include cstdio,' skel.c # sed is easier than patching bash configure --prefix=/tools make $THREADED make install cd .. rm -rf flex-2.5.35 ln -s libfl.a /tools/lib/libl.a cat /tools/bin/lex EOF #!/tools/bin/bash exec /tools/bin/flex -l $@ EOF chmod 755 /tools/bin/lex Then start chapter 5, binutils and so on. Follow the book and reinstall gawk and m4 just to be sure. Hope that hasn't confused you. It makes life easier for me as it means I don't need to mess about with Ubunut's package manager. I can just boot from the cd and go. Andy -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page

Sincerely, fuf. Looks like you're just confused about the book's mention of those version numbers. Keep in mind that on the Host System Requirements page, all the package versions are the *minimum* - you must have that version or newer. So, you just need to have any version of Bison 1.875 or newer, and Gawk 3.0 or later. I'm sure that you probably just need to apt-get install bison and apt-get install gawk and that should install the latest. -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
