gcc compiling error


Hello,

I can't compile gcc4.1.2 (chapter 6.12) because of some errors:

Code:

This is the 3rd time i'm trying to build lfs-6.3 and I got the same errors.
Why do you think it's givin' me those errors?
Please Help me. Thank you in advance.

Hi,


On what phase are you in?

Phase 1 of gcc? Phase 2?


What host are you're using to build the lfs?

Did you check the pre-requisites or use the version-check script? (Yeah, it's a silly question but there are those who doesn't pay attention to this and that's when they post xD)

The only thing I can see (and I'm not an expert of course) is that the system is unable to find the headers of gcc, are you sure that you're adding the right path during ./configure?

For what I can tell, that's your problem, either this is the phase 1 and your system doesn't have the proper to build programs (unlikely if you already build binutils) or you have misspelled the path during ./configure



Regards

I'm using the LFS livecd. This is the phase 3 gcc building (I also think is the last one). I've successfully finished building the temporary system.

The path given to ./configure is perfect I checked it twice. The files (stdio.h, etc...) are under /usr/include.

I also mention that make raises this error after approx 10 mins of compilation.

Finally it works!
I think the mistake was to configure and compile the same sources that I configured and compiled in phase 1 and 2, changing only the gcc-build directory.

Now I tried with some fresh sources and it works.

PS: Sorry for my poor english.

@Acron_248: I think I'll finish the lfs installation in less than 12 hours, but what about blfs? How long does it takes?

That depends in what you want to do with your lfs....


For instance, the amount of time needed to build an AMP (read Apache + MySQL + PHP) only, won't be the same to build an entire desktop ready system with kde or gnome.

The good thing is, since your working directly with the source you can tweak the packages during compile & install, you can deactivate options that you're sure that you won't need just to speed up the work.


BLFS is pretty generic, and I mean that it tries to cover anything you need to know to have just a linux firewall distro without X, or to build a complete X ready system.

So, is up to you, it isn't gonna be quick of course, but you can learn a ton from your effort



Regards
