Problem compiling parted
I am trying to compile parted for my embedded armeb system. I tried to configure it like so: ./configure --host=armeb-linux --prefix=/home/armsys/usr/
but i recieve the error: Code:
configure: error: GNU Parted requires libuuid - a part of the e2fsprogs package.This can probably be found on your distribution's CD or FTP site or at: Code:
./configure --host=armeb-linux --prefix=/home/armsys/usr/ |
Have you tried installing the uuid-dev package?
cheers, jdk |
I can't. Unless you have a uuid-dev package compiled for an armeb-linux system.

The package 'libuuid1' for 'arm'
http://packages.debian.org/lenny/libuuid1 The ' -dev ' package 'uuid-dev' : http://packages.debian.org/lenny/uuid-dev Mainly a link + some headers. If you can't use the packages, the source is included, same site. Parted, all architectures http://packages.debian.org/lenny/libparted1.8-i18n And probably another 10,000 packages for arm. ..... |
No luck. I didn't find any sources. The packages only contain pre-compiled binary files and headers, and none for the right arch. I can't use binaries compiled for arm, because "arm" assumes a little endian system, and mine is a big endian system, so I need to compile everything myself. The libparted package only contains locales and docs as far as I can tell (very misleading name).
I am pretty convinced that I have the right libraries, compiled for my correct system, but for some reason or another, the configure script and/or my compiler can't see them. Could there be any reason for this? |
http://packages.debian.org/lenny/libuuid1
or http://packages.debian.org/lenny/uuid-dev > > The right column > "Links for uuid-dev" [e2fsprogs_1.41.3.orig.tar.gz] [e2fsprogs_1.41.3-1.diff.gz] ..... Sorry for the libparted link, try this http://packages.debian.org/etch/libparted1.7-1 But then again ... all packages, parted, are listed > > The right column > "Similar packages:" ..... |
Arm big endian packages are not available and the source tarballs on those pages are identical to the ones I already have.
