There is a regression, causing the error:

I have built a patch that fixes that. Not sure how unsecured it becomes.

But there is a problem. The docs are all rebuilt (man and info), with two consequences: I am not sure what the dependencies are used to do that, and the build time increases to about 2.6 SBU.

There is a switch that I could add: --disable-doc. However, I believe most people would like to have at least the man pages.

I will attach the patch and wait until tomorrow for any possible help, which I would much appreciate.

Alternatives:

I am doing something wrong and it fails only in my system. But version in the book does not fail.

We skip this update and wait either for a patch or a new version.

Final part was not good. Rewriting: Alternatives:

1. Update the book using the patch and disabling (?) man and info.

2. I am doing something wrong and it fails only in my system. But version in the book does not fail.

3. We skip this update and wait either for a patch or a new version.

Alternative 4. there is a switch that just avoids reaching that point of the error: --disable-guile.

I am tired now, but tomorrow morning, will update using this switch.

Fixed at r12985.

Problems with guile and tests are solved upstream. I will include a patch to fix both problems after I test with LFS-7.5 (did only with LFS-7.1).

[Fernando de Oliveira]

Build with guile is back and the test suite is working, with added patch, both in r12986.
