hi
I follow the lfs book instruction step by step and I now are in 5.5. GCC-4.6.2 - Pass 1 point .
I encounter with below error when running make command :

how can I fix this error ?

Hi

As you are using ubuntu I see from your version-check that there are a issues The red issues need to be fixed 1st

for fixing these issues , must I install these packages : bison , gawk , m4 , makeinfo ?????

You seem to be using Ubuntu as host, have a look here: http://www.linuxquestions.org/questi...u-12-04-34902/ (the Preparing Ubuntu part).

Hi

Yes and also bin/sh should point to bash not dash

thank you druuna and spiky0011
