Hi, Dear Sir or Madam,

I am working on building a cross compiler. Currently I am working on one of several steps and want to use gcc-3..3.6 to build glibc-2.3.6. However, the following errors occurred. Could someone tell me how to skip the version checking and fix such errors?

I look forward to your help and hearing from you! The full log file is attached for your reference and please see it for details.

Thanks & regards,

Dingjun

configure prompts for necessary programs for too long. Check whether the 
compilation tool chain of your compilation machine is correct, 
especially binutils or make

[Dingjun Chen]

Hi, Jack, 

After I make a revision in the file: configure of glibc2.3.6, 

This may work: edit the configure file, look for 3.79* | 3.[89]*, change it to 3.79* | 3.[89]* | 4.*
https://stackoverflow.com/a/62252633/7268445

The errors from: 

*** These critical programs are missing or too old: as ld make

To:

*** These critical programs are missing or too old: as ld


Obviously, 'make' is gone after above minor revision in the file: configure.

Are there any more revisions so that  both 'as' and  'ld' are gone? 


I look forward to your help! 

Thanks  & regards, 

Dingjun

I think you should ensure that the compiler of your cross-compilation 
environment meets the minimum requirements for compiling a 
cross-compiler. The consequences of forcibly bypassing version detection 
may be more errors. For the specific cross-compilation process, you can 
refer to the Linux From Scratch documentation. description of.

No. Stop. I personally added the following note into LFS several years
ago:

   The LFS book is not (and does not contain) a general tutorial to build a
   cross- (or native) toolchain. Don't use the commands in the book for a
   cross-toolchain for some purpose other than building LFS, unless you
   really understand what you are doing.


It's just off-topic and annoying to ask all these questions about
building these ancient software via gcc-help.  And it's also off-topic
with LFS.  Please try to ask via a "retro-computing" forum instead.

You are right, however, their methods and principles are the same! 
Regardless, it's still a good reference.

Of course, in addition to LFS, if you are willing to spend time 
exploring, you can also consider referring to Gentoo's Crossdev script. 
However, there is essentially no difference - LFS is just a template. 
Obviously, its method is universal. You can arbitrarily select any part 
of the compilation process, for example, the cross-compiler build 
command - you only need to modify some parameters and refer to the 
configure command help. If you want to use automated tools, you can also 
use third-party tools to compile the cross-compilation environment
