<para><userinput>--prefix=/static:</userinput> This is NOT a typo. GCC hard
|
|
codes some paths while compiling and so we need to pass /static as the
|
|
prefix during ./configure. We pass the real install prefix during the
|
|
make install command later.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para><userinput>--with-as and --with-ld:</userinput> GCC can be
|
|
miscompiled if your host distribution's Binutils package is quite old. We
|
|
need a good working static GCC until we reinstall GCC later in chapter 6.
|
|
So by using <filename>as</filename> and <filename>ld</filename> from the
|
|
Binutils package we just compiled we ensure that GCC will work
|
|
correctly.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para><userinput>make BOOT_LDFLAGS="-static":</userinput>
|
|
This is the equivalent to make LDFLAGS="-static" as we use with other
|
|
packages to compile them statically.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para><userinput>make install-no-fixedincludes:</userinput>
|
|
This prevents the fixed header files from being installed. This is needed
|
|
because under normal circumstances the GCC installation will run the
|
|
fixincludes scripts which scans your system for header files that need to be
|
|
fixed. Say it finds Glibc header files. It will fix them and will end up in
|
|
$LFS/static/lib/gcc-lib/i686-pc-linux-gnu/ Later on in chapter 6 you
|
|
will install Glibc which will install header files in /usr/include. Next
|
|
you will install other programs which will use Glibc headers. GCC will look
|
|
in /static/lib/gcc-lib before looking in /usr/include, which has the result
|
|
of Glibc header files from your host distribution being found and used which
|
|
are probably incompatible with the Glibc version actually in use on the LFS
|
|
system.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para><userinput>ln -s gcc $LFS/static/bin/cc:</userinput> This
|
|
creates the $LFS/static/bin/gcc symlink, which some packages need.</para>
