Glibc-2.17 not compiling on section 6.9 of LFS SVN-20130419

Funny thing happening. on the first time, I could compile it without any problem, then now I restarted from beginning and for the seventh time, when I reach this point of the build I get this this

Code:

/tools/lib/gcc/x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu/4.8.0/../../../../x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu/bin/ld: /sources/glibc-build/libc_pic.os: relocation R_X86_64_PC32 against undefined hidden symbol `__strcasecmp_avx' can not be used when making a shared object

/tools/lib/gcc/x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu/4.8.0/../../../../x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu/bin/ld: final link failed: Bad value

collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status

make[2]: *** [/sources/glibc-build/libc.so] Error 1

make[2]: Leaving directory `/sources/glibc-2.17/elf'

make[1]: *** [elf/subdir_lib] Error 2

My host system is Slackware current 64 and I 'm building also a 64 LFS version as of SVN-20130419.

I keep reusing the environment that I build before, also SVN-20130419 to compile my LFS.

I heard about something that binutils could be the problem... any help?

Thanks

not sure what this means!!!
I hope you have removed the glibc dir and glibc-build dir each time?

Sorry for the unclear sentence. I meant I keep using the same Temporary System as in section 5, to create the current LFS... And yes the directories are removed after each attempt.

Funny is it worked once.

I guess I would feel sort of compelled to start over and build a new tool chain. Also consider building the stable 7.3 version. I had no issues with it. And there have been no errata published for it so far.

After I rebooted my machine and entered the build environment again, everything went fine. FInished the LFS part already, everything works great so far, now I'm on my way to get Xorg installed in BLFS :-)

Fix: reinstall from source

Hi, I recently came across this issue while compiling gettext0.20 for LFS (dev v) on aarch64. It was a bit worrying at first as the error message suggested it needed to compile with

Code:

-fpic

but was doing so already. After some digging, I realised that I had compiled gettext with the older host Glibc version while preparing the temporary environment. Simply re-extracting and recompiling gettext did the trick (or got it compiled past the error point at least, it's still building).
