Chapter 8.18 in Linux from Scratch 11.2-systemd. Check with errors

Hello.

I believe, I have some issues due 8.18 chapter. To be exact, in testing after compiling binutils.

Code:

$ ./version-check.sh
bash, version 5.1.16(1)-release
/bin/sh -> /usr/bin/bash
Binutils: (GNU Binutils) 2.39
bison (GNU Bison) 3.8.2
/usr/bin/yacc -> /usr/bin/bison
Coreutils:  9.0
diff (GNU diffutils) 3.8
find (GNU findutils) 4.9.0
GNU Awk 5.1.1, API: 3.1 (GNU MPFR 4.1.0-p13, GNU MP 6.2.1)
/usr/bin/awk -> /usr/bin/gawk
gcc (GCC) 12.2.1 20220819 (Red Hat 12.2.1-1)
g++ (GCC) 12.2.1 20220819 (Red Hat 12.2.1-1)
grep (GNU grep) 3.7
gzip 1.11
Linux version 5.19.4-200.fc36.x86_64 (mockbuild@bkernel02.iad2.fedoraproject.org) (gcc (GCC) 12.2.1 20220819 (Red Hat 12.2.1-1), GNU ld version 2.37-27.fc36) #1 SMP PREEMPT_DYNAMIC Thu Aug 25 17:42:04 UTC 2022
m4 (GNU M4) 1.4.19
GNU Make 4.3
GNU patch 2.7.6
Perl version='5.34.1';
Python 3.10.6
sed (GNU sed) 4.8
tar (GNU tar) 1.34
texi2any (GNU texinfo) 6.8
xz (XZ Utils) 5.2.6
g++ compilation OK

So,

Code:

$ make -k check

output

Code:

		=== gprofng tests ===

Schedule of variations:
    unix

Code:

make[2]: Leaving directory '/sources/binutils-2.39/build/libctf'
make[1]: Target 'check-host' not remade because of errors.

make[1]: Leaving directory '/sources/binutils-2.39/build'
make: *** [Makefile:2512: do-check] Error 2
make: Target 'check' not remade because of errors.

Is it safe to continue or I have to fix this?

Thanks

Can't verify as i don't run the tests - but i do know gprofng is a recent addition to binutils. You can check here to verify if it's a problem:
https://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/build-logs/11.2

Guess they haven't posted it yet - i get a 'NotFound' for that page. I do see an entry for 11.2-rc1. Try that instead..

Actually, I've continued installation and, after few issues with grub, it's working now. So, turns out, those errors was not that significant, at least for finishing LFS project. We will see, if it'll cause problems in BLFS.
