Problem in LFS 7.2 ---> 6.7. Linux-3.5.2 API Headers
 
I am getting this while doing "make headers_check"


/bin/sh: xargs: command not found
make[2]: *** [/sources/linux-3.5.2/usr/include/asm-generic/.check] Error 127
make[1]: *** [asm-generic] Error 2
make: *** [headers_check] Error 2

I am guessing i have done some thing wrong in my /tools back in chapter 5.
Can you guide where i have done mistake?

btw, mkproper also shown something like that, i just skipped that command.

Please post some more of the error as described here: 1.5. Help (1.5.3 in this case).

Don't just skip commands if they don't work. Fix the problem, then continue. Not doing so will make sure you end up with a none functioning LFS.

Also:
- Which host is being used and was it made fully compliant?
- Did you enter the chrooted environment correctly?
- Did you skip any other packages/steps?

xargs is part of the findutils package make sure you have installed it properly

Thank you., after searching around i Found that. I reinstalled it But it was getting all mess, since going back in ch 5 and adjusting things creates more trouble. I am again going from start, and will make sure that keep the toolchains backup.

The host in ubuntu and its fine. I have done version check too. Nops, I didnt skipped the packages, but when we are in last of ch 5 dealing with packages like tar and findutils, we may do some error, and we find about them here :D... i have rebuild tar, since it wasn't working while in chroot. But have been through ua comment that one should start from beginning so just doing that now. I think i made a mistake in findutils installation at the end of ch 5. :)
