Section 6.14 Gcc-3.4.1 error

Ok, so I'm trying to build the gcc source in the chroot environment(according to section 6.14. I ran the 'make -k check' command, and a few errors were given. I then ran the 'make install' command, and it aborted w/ errors. Here is the output of my test summary file

Any thoughts?

I really don't think you have anything to worry about.
(It may be another case where make check is useless and untrustworthy)

So, just continue on with installing GCC, and if you have any problems post them.

even, though it quit when I ran make install? Ummm....sorry but that seems counter-intuitive.

Ok, so you tried make install. Did you get any errors before make check?
If so, post them.

no, I don't think so, but I went back and ran the ../gcc-3.4.1/configure command, and it looks like everything it's looking for it can't find, perhaps a toolchain problem? is there a way to fix that? I'll have to get the output for you.

ok, here are the errors from the 'make check' command

For make install those are not errors, they don't say 'Error' anywhere. (I made that mistake too)

As for make check here's a quote from the lfs-book

Quote:

Test the results, but do not stop at errors:

CONGRATULATIONS, YOU CAN FINALLY CONTINUE ON!

Well-l-l... better take a look at the config.log or whatever first. Messages like "could not create executable" usually mean something else, and you need to look for a detailed logfile to find out why.

I saw a bunch of these and what was really the matter was that glibc was hosed. Trying the simple "cc command test" mentioned earlier in the instructions revealed that the command didn't work. I had indeed done something wrong.

As anxious as you may be to "proceed," you really do need to do a little bit of deeper-looking before you proceed from this point, given these messages...

I tried the cc dummy.c test, mentioned earlier in the book. It listed the correct listing. So I assume that's not the error. I'll look into it some more. Any ideas as to what's wrong?

It didn't abort with errors at all.

Your make install was successful.
Those aren't errors they don't say Error any where, but in make check which the book says not to stop at.

alright, alright. I'll keep going. But if something goes wrong, I'm holding you accountable :)
