50 <para>It is important that Binutils be the first package compiled
51 because both Glibc and GCC perform various tests on the available
52 linker and assembler to determine which of their own features to
53 enable.</para>
54
55 <para>The Binutils documentation recommends building Binutils
56 in a dedicated build directory:</para>

59cd build</userinput></screen>

61 <note>
62 <para>In order for the SBU values listed in the rest of the book
63 to be of any use, measure the time it takes to build this package from
64 the configuration, up to and including the first install. To achieve
65 this easily, wrap the commands in a <command>time</command>
66 command like this: <userinput>time { ./configure ... &amp;&amp; ...
67 &amp;&amp; make install; }</userinput>.</para>

122 <para>Because the machine description in the <envar>LFS_TGT</envar>
123 variable is slightly different than the value returned by the

152 <para>Compilation is now complete. Ordinarily we would now run the
153 test suite, but at this early stage the test suite framework (Tcl,
154 Expect, and DejaGNU) is not yet in place. The benefits of running the
155 tests at this point are minimal since the programs from this
156 first pass will soon be replaced by those from the second.</para>
