a working linker. The libc_cv_forced_unwind=yes variable is passed in

</blockquote>
|
|
|
|
<para>The missing or incompatible <command>msgfmt</command> program is
|
|
generally harmless. This <command>msgfmt</command> program is part of the
|
|
Gettext package which the host distribution should provide.</para>
|
|
|
|
<note><para>There have been reports that this package may fail when
|
|
building as a "parallel make". If this occurs, rerun the make command

with a "-j1" option.</para></note>

<!--
|
|
<para>This package does come with a test suite, however, it cannot be
|
|
run at this time because we do not have a C++ compiler yet.</para>
|
|
|
|
<note>
|
|
<para>The test suite also requires locale data to be installed in order to run
|
|
successfully. Locale data provides information to the system regarding
|
|
such things as the date, time, and currency formats accepted and output by
|
|
system utilities. If the test suites are not being run in this chapter
|
|
(as per the recommendation), there is no need to install the locales now.
|
|
The appropriate locales will be installed in the next chapter. To install
|
|
the Glibc locales anyway, use instructions from <xref
|
|
linkend="ch-system-glibc" role="."/></para>

|
|
<para>Install the package:</para>
|
|
|
|
<screen><userinput remap="install">make install</userinput></screen>
|
|
|
|
<caution>
|
|
<para>At this point, it is imperative to stop and ensure that the basic
|
|
functions (compiling and linking) of the new toolchain are working as
|
|
expected. To perform a sanity check, run the following commands:</para>
|
|
|
|
<screen><userinput>echo 'int main(){}' > dummy.c
|
|
$LFS_TGT-gcc dummy.c
|
|
readelf -l a.out | grep ': /tools'</userinput></screen>
|
|
|
|
<para>If everything is working correctly, there should be no errors,
|
|
and the output of the last command will be of the form:</para>
|
|
|
|
<screen><computeroutput>[Requesting program interpreter: /tools/lib/ld-linux.so.2]</computeroutput></screen>
|
|
|
|
<para>Note that for 64-bit machines, the interpreter name will be
|
|
<filename>/tools/lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2</filename>.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>If the output is not shown as above or there was no output at all,
|
|
then something is wrong. Investigate and retrace the steps to find out
|
|
where the problem is and correct it. This issue must be resolved before
|
|
continuing on.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>Once all is well, clean up the test files:</para>
|
|
|
|
<screen><userinput>rm -v dummy.c a.out</userinput></screen>
|
|
|
|
</caution>
|
|
|
|
<note><para>Building Binutils in the section after next will serve as an
|
|
additional check that the toolchain has been built properly. If Binutils
|
|
fails to build, it is an indication that something has gone wrong with the
|
|
previous Binutils, GCC, or Glibc installations.</para></note>
