[SOLVED] I can't install anything after installed Python (installing BLFS) & please help me!

Forget-Me-Not · 10-24-2012, 06:22 AM

I'm building BLFS. I don't know why couldn't install anything after installed Python

I use this document: http://linuxgazette.net/164/laycock.html
Thus I'm sure that nothing's wrong in the Base libraries. And I'm installing the Platform libraries. Help me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It's taken me so much time!
Thanks in advance!

Why not just follow the instructions in the BLFS book to build gnome? The two guides may not be compatible.

Forget-Me-Not · 10-24-2012, 11:30 AM

Yes, I did. I've followed instruction in BLFS book.
I just use this document (linuxgazette.net/164/laycock.html) to get idea about minimum system. This is the first time I build the system however I don't think that the packages of BLFS will be installed all. I don't know how can solve this problem! Might you suggest to me another way,too?

Thank you very much!

exactly where is the problem what package will not install what chapter of the book are you on?

Forget-Me-Not · 10-24-2012, 12:14 PM

I installed the packages as following:
Libxml2—Dbus
Gvfs—Intltool
XML::Parser—FreeType
FontConfig—Glib
ATK—Pixman
Cairo-Libpng
Pango—Gtk—PYTHON 2.6.4 <~ Stand here

I knew that the problem wasn't missing package. Because when I installed Python whenever.
For example: pixman~> cairo~> atk. If PYTHON was installed behind cairo, atk counldn't be installed.
Also I can't install another packages after installation of PYTHON.

Please help me!!!

what version of the book are you using as it looks like your build order is way out I used the latest version ( Version 2012-10-18 ), I installed python before those other packages, this is the download/install order I used from python to Gtk

which installs fine
What do you mean exactly when you say you can't install anything? what is the specific package/error?

Forget-Me-Not · 10-24-2012, 01:37 PM

I installed Python 2.7.3 and I recognize that my system can't install the packages with unprivileges user. I mean it just can execute command-line with root.
If I install all packages with root, what will be wrong with my system?

Thank you so much!

Keith Hedger · 10-24-2012, 01:45 PM

By the time you are where you are you should be logged in as root NOT as a normal user either in the booted system or in the chroot system, if you install "sudo" you can install as a normal user but you will still need to install "sudo" as root.
Make sure when you are installing as root you are in the chrooted environment OR have booted into your LFS system.

Keith Hedger · 10-24-2012, 01:48 PM

See This chapter:http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/...06/chroot.html

THANK YOU VERY MUCH! You're awesome.

Keith Hedger · 10-24-2012, 02:29 PM

You're welcome.

I'm going to build LFS version 7.2
http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/view/7.2/

I could just find message below which talk about livecd:
http://cross-lfs.org/~kb0iic/livecdupd/

I don't know that should I use it or not?

Replaced 2.6.22.5 kernel with 2.6.39.4 kernel to meet host system requirements (livecd)
Linux-3.5.2 (LFS version 7.2)

Might you give me your advice? Thank you so much!

Sorry!I posted wrong place. I don't know how to remove my wrong record.
