-<title>Installation of Glibc</title>
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-<para>At the beginning of this chapter you installed Glibc and applied a
|
|
|
-patch to it. Part of this patch was undoing some changes to make static
|
|
|
-binaries compiled against Glibc-2.2 work. However, this is not what the
|
|
|
-Glibc developers intended and we don't need to keep this modified Glibc
|
|
|
-around. So we reinstall Glibc here to remove this patch.</para>
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-<para>A second reason to install Glibc again is because it's considered
|
|
|
-cleaner. The first Glibc was installed using programs compiled on your host
|
|
|
-distribution which sometimes has the effect of tainting Glibc. While this
|
|
|
-isn't a problem with the other packages compiled early in this chapter, for
|
|
|
-Glibc we want to be sure it's 100% OK (although feel free to reinstall
|
|
|
-other packages at this point so you can say you compiled an LFS system with
|
|
|
-LFS. Much like GCC's bootstrap installation method).</para>
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-<para>We'll also install the linuxthreads man pages here. As you may
|
|
|
-recall, during the first installation of Glibc this wasn't possible because
|
|
|
-Perl wasn't installed yet. Now that everything needed to install the Glibc
|
|
|
-linuxthreads man pages is present as well, we will install those too.</para>
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-<para>Before starting to install Glibc, you must cd into the
|
|
|
-glibc-&glibc-version; directory and unpack glibc-linuxthreads inside
|
|
|
-the glibc-&glibc-version; directory, not in /usr/src as you normally
|
|
|
-would do.</para>
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-<para>This package is known to behave badly when you have changed its
|
|
|
-default optimization flags (including the -march and -mcpu options).
|
|
|
-Therefore, if you have defined any environment variables that override
|
|
|
-default optimizations, such as CFLAGS and CXXFLAGS, we recommend unsetting
|
|
|
-or modifying them when building Glibc. You have been warned.</para>
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-<para>Basically, compiling Glibc in any other way than the book suggests
|
|
|
-is putting your system at very high risk.</para>
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-<para>It is recommended by the Glibc installation documentation to build
|
|
|
-Glibc outside of the source tree. Create the build directory:</para>
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-<para><screen><userinput>mkdir ../glibc-build &&
|
|
|
-cd ../glibc-build</userinput></screen></para>
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-<para>Next, prepare Glibc to be compiled:</para>
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-<para><screen><userinput>../glibc-&glibc-version;/configure --prefix=/usr --disable-profile \
|
|
|
- --enable-add-ons --libexecdir=/usr/bin</userinput></screen></para>
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-<para>Continue with compiling the package:</para>

-
|
|

-<para><screen><userinput>make</userinput></screen></para>
