LFS book 6.3 CH 5.14 Bash 3.2 "make error"
 

When I try to run 'make' for bash-3.2 I get an error.
I have tried removing the bash-3.2 folder, re extract it, apply the patch, run configure, and still the same error.
If you have any ideas please let me know.:confused:

yacc is in the bison package. You may need to install it for use in your system.

I already have bison 1.875 installed and when I go to '/usr/local/share/bison' yacc.c is there. But I still get the error.

The yacc executable needs to be in /usr/bin or /usr/local/bin OR a link to the executable needs to be in those locations or in your path. Your problem is that the executable is not located by make. Make the correction, and run, as root, ldconfig (if that is also needed.) Then try again.

Thanks
 

I looked and yacc was in '/usr/local/bin' and still no luck, so I created a link to '/usr/bin' and make ran without error. I guess it was only looking in '/usr/bin' on my system. Thanks for the help.:D

Yes, this fix, install bison on host, worked for me. Current LFS 7.1, on host, ubuntuStudio-64-10.04
