error in configure glibc-2.3.4
hello.
I try to install glibc-2.3.4 in redhat 9. But while the configuration, this Error is apeared: checking for forced unwind support... no configure: error: forced unwind support is required my kernel is 2.4.28 & my gcc is 3.2.2 thank you Ali |
I don't know if it's related, but there is something called libunwind. Perhaps that's what you need.

Do not attempt to upgrade glibc, instead upgrade your distribution

glibc is frequently impossible to build with a stock toolchain. It's a "magic" package in that regard: I'd never recommend somebody try to upgrade it. That's a good way to render your system unbootable.
Most software that appears, at first sight, to depend on a new glibc actually doesn't. Recompiling it makes this dependency magically disappear. |
I dont want to update my glibc ,I want configure and compile it to make LFS System and then build a live CD form that. I use the LFS-BOOK6 but I stoped becuase of this Error.
thanks |
I never had any problems updating glibc on my systems. I've done it before on RH9 without a prob.
Try updating gcc to a newer version first and then see. |
There's a difference between updating it via up2date and building from source.

error in compiling cross-compile tools, glibc-2.3.5
Hi,
When I make cross-compiler toolchain, I also encouter the same error ..... checking for unistd.h... no checking for long double... no checking size of long double... 0 running configure fragment for sysdeps/i386/elf checking for i386 TLS support... yes running configure fragment for nptl/sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux running configure fragment for nptl/sysdeps/pthread checking for forced unwind support... no configure: error: forced unwind support is required host kernel: 2.6.8 (SuSE 9.2) target kernel: 2.6.9 gcc-3.3.4 glibc-2.3.5 glibc-linuxthreads-2.3.5 Although I installed libunwin, result is the same. Would somebody can advise me? Thank you! Aries Wang |

The host must be running at least a 2.6.2 kernel compiled with GCC-3.0 or higher. Unfortunately you wont be able to build an LFS 6.0 on a system running a 2.4.x kernel. Mad. |

It still happens! What the heck is with all these glibc packages that have so much trouble making and building them? I even have errors just trying to build glibc libraries package for my native i686 PC compiler environment let alone trying to use it for cross compilers. Developers have to fix this inconsistent building of glibc. Does not work for me. |
