Hi All,

I have extracted linuxthreads"glibc-linuxthreads-2.3.2" in glibc2.3.2 dir and applied this patch"glibc-2.3.2-sscanf-1.patch" in pass 2

but when i try to execute this command

"../glibc-2.3.2/configure --prefix=/usr \
--disable-profile --enable-add-ons \
--libexecdir=/usr/bin --with-headers=/usr/include"

Configuration error is comming ......
LIke this
------------------------------------------------------------
configure: error:
*** These critical programs are missing or too old: gcc
*** Check the INSTALL file for required versions.
------------------------------------------------------------
Can anybody help me ?

Thanks
Irfan

If you can give the details of your distro and gcc, however, its best to get a newer gcc!, as thats what it complains

Yes, i am using Red Hat 8 and lfs version is 5.0 and abviously you can see glibc2.3.2 version.

I have removed this error ...this was comming due to unsuccessfull installation of gcc (pass1).
but now new config error is comming after executing:

../glibc-2.3.2/configure --prefix=/usr \
--disable-profile --enable-add-ons \
--libexecdir=/usr/bin --with-headers=/usr/include
------------------------------------------------------------
Error :

checking size of long double... configure: error: cannot compute sizeof (long double), 77
See `config.log' for more details.
---------------------------------------------------------------
this is config.log detail:

configure:6294: error: cannot compute sizeof (long double), 77
See `config.log' for more details.

Again can any one help me

thnx
Irfan
