I'm assuming you are talking about gcc 4.6.3 and EGLIBC. If that is the case then these 2 seem to work (although I wouldn't use them when this would be my first LFS build).

I was wondering why the OP log showed using mawk not gawk, when I checked mine it was using gawk.
The dash vs bash issue might come into play here. The OP first has to make sure the host is compliant with the Host System Requirements.
Quote:
The only other thing was OP uses "/mnt/Omoikane/sources not lfs would this be creating problems?
If the LFS variable is correctly set and the OP uses it consistently it isn't a problem. But again: Why deviate from the book, especially on the first build.
Do you have any insite as to what going wrong, I used the same ubuntu as OP It built without error all of gcc with bash set
- First and foremost: Host is not compliant.
why?
Code:
from post #16
configure: error: cannot compute suffix of object files: cannot compile
from post #18
configure:2572: checking for gawk
configure:2602: result: no
configure:2572: checking for mawk
configure:2588: found /usr/bin/mawk
configure:2599: result: mawk
from post #26
/bin/sh -> /bin/dash
gcc (Ubuntu/Linaro 4.6.3-1ubuntu5) 4.6.3
(Ubuntu EGLIBC 2.15-0ubuntu10) 2.15
The 2 in blue might or might not be a problem.
Secondly: I suspect that the OP didn't start with a clean sheet after failures. I.e. not removing (build)directories etc.
sorry for the lack of posting the internet in my neighborhood is acting up :/
druuna: thanks, im going to try to change the items in blue and fromat the lfs partition again :/ but before i do that im going to copy and paste from the book to see if its something that im doing wrong
