- - 5.9. Binutils-2.25 - Pass 2 configure fails (https://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-from-scratch-13/5-9-binutils-2-25-pass-2-configure-fails-4175538176/)

5.9. Binutils-2.25 - Pass 2 configure fails

Dear all,

I am trying to do 5.9. Binutils-2.25 - Pass 2 but i have a configure error. I have centos6 as the host os.

Code:

lfs:/mnt/lfs/sources/binutils-2.25$ CC=$LFS_TGT-gcc                \

> AR=$LFS_TGT-ar                \

> RANLIB=$LFS_TGT-ranlib        \

> ../binutils-2.25/configure    \

>    --prefix=/tools            \

>    --disable-nls              \

>    --disable-werror          \

>    --with-lib-path=/tools/lib \

>    --with-sysroot

running configure, to aid debugging if configure makes a mistake.



It was created by configure, which was

Can you help me please? I am really struggling and I am sure I have not messed anything up. Thanks in advance.

btw I using Linux From Scratch - Version 7.7 book

Hi

Did you forget

Code:

mkdir -v ../binutils-build

cd ../binutils-build

untar binutils-2.25 cd into dir follow book

hi spikey,

I did not forget to issue the configure outside the source directory, I was in binutils-build . Also I have added the version check in the previous post.

looks like you are in binutils-2.25 dir not binutils-build

should be

/mnt/lfs/sources/binutils-build

hey dont you believe me! see below:

regarding binutils source and build folders, 1st build i did remove them, i unpaked the tar again for 2nd pass.

something went wrong in in glib or gcc

If you removed all untarred dir & build dir when you finished building, I would start again

you have this in config log
../binutils-2.25/configure: ./a.out: /tools/lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2: bad ELF interpreter: No such file or directory

hi this is the second time round im am trying this, glibc and gcc compile and install fine. - no errors. what is going to change by starting from binutils pass1? thats where i started again the second time. I have made no changes to the process! I always get stuck at binutils pass2...

I have checked the config.log file and it points to 4246 of configure:

any ideas? I put in bold some of the errors that have popped up in config.log

Well if your copy pasting commands they should be good, the only other thing is the host
I have built 7.7 a few times now but not on centos i build from lfs. Maybe try slack or arch

you can wait see if anyone else can figure the error out.

The only only other thing you did run the
case $(uname -m) in
x86_64) mkdir -v /tools/lib && ln -sv lib /tools/lib64 ;;
esac
end of binutils 1st pass

im sure people have been able to do this (get past binutils 2nd pass) on centos somewhere and I should be ok because my host has all the prequisite software installed as version check shows....I really need help I really dont wanna move on to another distro for host.....

last idea

Code:

ls -l $LFS/tools

Unfortunately it's the distribution. CentOS is based on Red Hat which it and Fedora are known to have problems. We aren't entirely certain, but the way they patch certain packages often affects how the system works and it ends up killing GCC.

The evidence of this can be found by running this:

Code:

cat > library-check.sh << "EOF"

#!/bin/bash

for lib in lib{gmp,mpfr,mpc}.la; do

  echo $lib: $(if find /usr/lib* -name $lib|

              grep -q $lib;then :;else echo not;fi) found

done

unset lib

EOF



bash library-check.sh

Slackware is one of a few distributions that include the static libraries ".la" of the gmp, mfpr, and mpc libraries required to rebuild GCC and binutils.

thanks for helping...

run the script Reaper mentioned

also shouldn't lib be linked to lib64

hi spiky, can you send me the full command to link correctly lib and lib64 and I will try issue the configure command again, thanks in advance.

At the end of binutils pass 1 Ch 5.4

Not got a 64bit machine about but lib64 should be linked

Reaper will know

thanks for the time you took on this...do you think Reaper will come back then? Is there a way of notifying him I would like his input?

I really think thats the problem

whats inside tools/lib64

also the script reaper put

hi spiky,

this is what is in tools/lib64

Quote:

lfs:/mnt/lfs/tools/lib64$ ls
libstdc++.a libstdc++.a-gdb.py libstdc++.la libsupc++.a libsupc++.la

output from reaper script is:

So there is no file /tools/lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2. Which is needed by any new program to run in built LFS.

Check if /tools/lib has it? Or is it present in /tools filesystem tree by using 'find' command.

Hi veerain,

The file seems to be in /tools/lib, see below the output of the find command I issued.

Thanks for looking at this problem too...

Try linking tools/lib to tools/lib64

this was supposed to be done in binutils 1st pass

tried but still no luck, also i cant see a sym link created although it says file exists when i issue the command again:

The ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 file is part of glibc and installed with it. During install you should have passed --libdir=/tools/lib64 to be more specific but book doesn't says so. Instead it depends on build scripts of glibc to decide it. And in your case it gets installed to /tools/lib but the gcc pass1 has the path of dynamic linker set in /tools/lib64.

So I say before installing binutils pass1 you should go the /tools directory and run 'mkdir lib64; ln -s lib64 lib'.

Or If you want to run anyway from this point onward, then copy all the files, directories in /tools/lib to /tools/lib64. Careful to not overwrite files in /tools/lib64 especially symlinks overwriting regular files. And then delete /tools/lib and put a symlink from /tools/lib to /tools/lib64.

Code:

rm -fr /tools/lib

cd /tools

ln -s lib64 lib

hi veerain, thats worked! I decided to continue rather than start again, thanks so much for your help on this problem.
