[Clfs-dev] Latest build SVN-20080914-x86_64-Pure64

[Martin Ward]

Some observations, CLFS x64 pure  building from 32 bit CLFS with kernel 
2.6.23.12, glibc 2.7, gcc 4.2.2

Cross Compile phase

coreutils 5.12, the futimens change i think is unnecessary, builds ok 
without, but you might want to check this, their is a patch to fix the 
installation at
http://svn.exactcode.de/t2/trunk/package/base/coreutils/install.patch

boot phase
udev 128 their is a missing ${CLFS} in the install command

Can't find the new bootscripts, bootscripts-cross-lfs-1.2-pre1.tar.bz2 
anywhere, used the old version
and a missing ${CLFS} in the inittab command



Temp tools phase
perl 5.10.0
build Error no as this is needed by coreutils 5.12, needs a sed or 
change in build order to pick up errno.h,as its hard coded to 
/usr/include, rather than where out headers are in /tools/include, then 
make perl utilities ext/Errno/pm_to_blib

gcc 4.3.2

same test failures as every body else

coreutils 5.12
Permissions need changing on the gnu-lib tests other wise they fail when 
executing them as the dummy user, again the install patch needs 
applying, ditto futimens patch not needed as above

iana-etc 2.30
upgraded to this and used make STRIP=yes

ncurses 5.6

updated the updates to around 23/08/08, have patch if anybody needs it, 
built fine


zlib 1.2.3
moved this up in the build order to satisfy  perl building from a system 
zlib

perl 5.10.0

use make BUILD_ZLIB=False, to link against system zlib (thanks DIY linux)

kbdutils

upgraded to 1.14.1, no problems

shadow 4.12.1

used sed -i "s/noinst_LTLIBRARIES/lib_LTLIBRARIES/g" lib/Makefile.am
libtoolize
autoreconf
export LDFLAGS="$LDFLAGS -lcrypt"
saves a bit of space in building the utils

bootscripts-cross-lfs-1.2-pre1.tar.bz2 again not available


Hope that helps, haven't posted a lot in the past but have been building 
LFS and now CLFS for a few years
