Hello All,

I am trying to create my LFS using a host RHEL 5.0 {Full Installation and has development tools rpm included in it}.

I am following LFS book version 6.4 and i have completed package's till DejaGNU-1.4.4.

However i am getting below error message when i try to run make -k check command in section 5.12. GCC-4.3.2 - Pass 2 {thats chapter 5} Re-installation of GCC :
"
make[4]: Leaving directory `/mnt/lfs/sources/gcc-build/i686-pc-linux-gnu/libgomp'
make[3]: Leaving directory `/mnt/lfs/sources/gcc-build/i686-pc-linux-gnu/libgomp'
make[2]: *** [check-recursive] Error 1
make[2]: Target `check' not remade because of errors.
make[2]: Leaving directory `/mnt/lfs/sources/gcc-build/i686-pc-linux-gnu/libgomp'
make[1]: *** [check-target-libgomp] Error 2
make[1]: Target `check-target' not remade because of errors.
make[1]: Leaving directory `/mnt/lfs/sources/gcc-build'
make: *** [do-check] Error 2
make: Target `check' not remade because of errors.

"

I can run make and make install commands with no errors at all but make -k check errors out and when i run the sanity check provided in this section end it gives no output which according to the book is something wrong.

And as per the book i have checked the path variable symlinks and the specsfile and seems good.

Could some one help on this issue it would be really appreciated as i am stuck on this section.

Thanks
Sammy

I think I got the same errors. Since both 'make' and 'make install' worked so I moved on and ignored those errors.

You will find out later, if 'gcc' is OK :

When the crucial tests for 'glibc' passes ... or not.


......

hello friends as per ypur suggestion i ignored the error message and proceeded further and it threw an error for make check command for section 5.13. Binutils-2.18 - Pass 2 so ignored that too and went further till section 5.17. Coreutils-6.12 compilation of LFS book ver 6.4 but when i run following command it goes on forever and never comesback to a command prompt :

make RUN_EXPENSIVE_TESTS=yes check

And also make install command throws the following error :

./ginstall: /lib/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.6' not found (required by ./ginstall)
make[5]: *** [cu-install-binPROGRAMS] Error 1
make[5]: Leaving directory `/mnt/lfs/sources/coreutils-6.12/src'

Guys any idea about this i need to get this fix asap i am stuck on this for long time now.

Appreciate your support.

Thanks

I think something was not done correctly in Chapter 5 because I went through that and didn't see the problem you are seeing. I suggest you to repeat Chapter 5 from the beginning.
