%general-entities; ]> Binutils tools, pass 2 Create a separate build directory again: mkdir -v ../binutils-build cd ../binutils-build Prepare Binutils for compilation: ../binutils-&binutils-version;/configure --prefix=/tools \ --disable-nls --with-lib-path=/tools/lib --with-lib-path=/tools/lib This tells the configure script to specify the library search path during the compilation of Binutils, resulting in /tools/lib being passed to the linker. This prevents the linker from searching through library directories on the host. Compile the package: make Compilation is now complete. As discussed earlier, running the test suite is not mandatory for the temporary tools here in this chapter. To run the Binutils test suite anyway, issue the following command: make check Install the package: make install Now prepare the linker for the Re-adjusting phase in the next chapter: make -C ld clean make -C ld LIB_PATH=/usr/lib:/lib cp -v ld/ld-new /tools/bin
