Jon, Thanks for the background on kcc.
My host system is EasyOS Dunfell-series, which is built from packages compiled in OpenEmbedded. I choose the T2 minimal packages basic desktop, and off she ran, it was looking real good... 1. There was that kcc fix. 2. Stage 0, gcc wanted 'isl' package installed on the host system. Did that and off she went again... 3. Stopped at Stage 1, llvm failure, this message: /mnt/sda1/downloads/downloads2/input574/0-t2sde/t2-trunk-r52412/build/system-21-svn-generic-x86-64-linux/TOOLCHAIN/tools.cross/crosscc/../lib/gcc/x86_64-t2-linux-gnu/11.1.0/../../../../x86_64-t2-linux-gnu/bin/ld: cannot find /mnt/sda1/downloads/downloads2/input574/0-t2sde/t2-trunk-r52412/build/system-21-svn-generic-x86-64-linux/usr/lib/libtinfo.so: No such file or directory collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status Well, ncurses did built at stage 1, but did not create libtinfo. I have a vague memory, that whether or not to create a separate libtinfo is a configure choice in ncurses. So it would seem the build recipe is wrong. Haven't yet investigated it any further.
