6.12 GCC Installation

Subfix · 07-11-2008, 02:03 AM

Solved: Use a fresh source every time to configure! Dummy.

I never realized I should use a new source (I realize this one was patched though), I hope it doesn't bring up any problems later.

----- I'll leave this in case it helps someone -----

Hi, I've not had any problems getting through this installation of LFS until I got to installing GCC after chroot.

glibc and binutils installed fine without any troubles, but gcc errors during the make with a bunch of missing header files.

I went back and ran the commands to make sure the compiler was searching in the correct place for the header files and it is (/usr/include). I checked in that directory and sure enough all of the missing header files are there... so why is it when I try to make gcc it cannot find them?

I would post the errors but I can't copy and paste to here from the livecd installation. I saw someone else had a similar problem, but was solved by using a new build directory. I've already tried changing the build directory... so :\

EDIT

I found the post similar to mine that I described, these are what errors I am getting:

Also, I did

sed -i 's@\./fixinc\.sh@-c true@' gcc/Makefile.in

so that fixincludes wouldn't run and mess with the current headers.

Just to point out the obvious, had you read section 5.1 you would have seen this great big yellow box with the following

Just one of many good example why reading the LFS book is a good idea
