%general-entities; ]> Create a separate build directory again: mkdir ../binutils-build cd ../binutils-build Now prepare Binutils for compilation: ../binutils-&binutils-version;/configure --prefix=/tools \ --enable-shared --with-lib-path=/tools/lib Compile the package: make Test the results: make -k check Except for a few known failures, the binutils tests should all pass. The exceptions to this rule are as follows: * 5 FAIL (unexpected failure) for visibility * 1 FAIL for selective4 * 1 FAIL for selective5 And 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 Do not yet remove the Binutils source and build directories. You will need these directories again in the next chapter in the state they are in now.
