also here is the output of the second script:

however it said that it is ok if they are all absent.

fix the errots from the version script, then start again, dont reuse the tools from chap 5 start completly from fresh, if your host is not complient you will not be able to build LFS

zoelee4 · 08-27-2016, 12:08 PM

Ok thank you so much!

You could try to skip to § 6.59 and install gawk before glibc. If that doesn't work than
back out of your chroot and install it to /tmp from § 5.23. Do not adjust the toolchain
in the next section or you'll end up with a nonviable temp tool chain.

You don't have makeinfo. You'll need that.

maxlndn · 09-27-2018, 05:29 PM

Hello,

Thanks for the answer. Two points:

- I tried to install Gawk before glibc. It doesn't work. Another error appears:
"./config.status: line 1172: awk: command not found.

I don't know how to install Makeinfo. Maybe I'm wrong, but there is no package with this name in the sources directory. Do you know how to install it ? And from the host or in the chroot environment ?

Thanks a lot for your answer.

sr_ls_boy · 09-27-2018, 05:35 PM

makeinfo is given by the texinfo package.

Quote:

./config.status: line 1172: awk: command not found.

Is this issued by the configure script for glibc in §6.9 ?

Where ever you have awk or gawk, try manually copying it to /tmp/bin.

maxlndn · 09-27-2018, 05:45 PM

No it is given by the configure script of Gawk

maxlndn · 09-27-2018, 05:46 PM

Ok so do you think I can install texinfo before glibc as well ?

sr_ls_boy · 09-27-2018, 06:25 PM

It's strange that gawk is complaining that you don't have
awk. I suggest backing out of the chroot and installing
both texinfo and gawk to your host. And, I don't mean /tmp.
After you used your package manager, rerun § 5.23. That
will give you gawk in /tmp. chroot and try glibc again.

texinfo is needed to to build viable temp tool chain.
If you were using Ubuntu as your host I would ask
you to run:

Code:

sudo apt install texinfo

The host requirement is not to be confused with § 5.32.

maxlndn · 09-27-2018, 06:38 PM

Ok I'll try this, but what is weird is that Gawk is actually installed on the host .

maxlndn · 09-27-2018, 06:39 PM

By the way the other strange thing is that texinfo is also installed in temporary toolchain

maxlndn · 09-27-2018, 08:32 PM

Okay so texinfo is installed on the host, and the version-check.sh script is successful.
However Gawk is already installed and up to date.

- Installing gawk before glibc still doesn't work, awk is not detected.

- Also, in the /tmp/bin directory (when out of chroot) is already filled with awk and gawk. I also tried to install it as said in 5.23 with --prefix=/tmp.
Therefore my /tmp/bin is filled with :
awk gawk gawk-4.2.1

Obviously, installing glibc still doesn't work as well.

A few suggestions/theories on my part:
- If for the temporary system the installation of both glibc and gawk worked (in this precise order), then is it possible that there is a problem with the PATH, or with the way the OS is looking up programs ? However I don't believe this too much given both awk and gawk binaries are in /usr/bin/ and that this path is in the PATH given to the chroot command.

- The test for detecting gawk is buggy. (I tried to look it up a bit, but I'm not an advanced user of bash, and I could not really understand the few parts I found about testing gawk.
