30<para>Util-linux has issues with the Linux 2.6 kernel series. These
31issues can be fixed by applying the following patch:</para>
32
33<screen><userinput>patch -Np1 -i ../util-linux-&util-linux-version;-kernel_headers-1.patch</userinput></screen>
34
35<para>Util-linux does not use the freshly installed headers and
36libraries from the <filename class="directory">/tools</filename>
37directory. This is fixed by altering the configure script:</para>
38
39<screen><userinput>sed -i 's@/usr/include@/tools/include@g' configure</userinput></screen>
40
41<para>Prepare Util-linux for compilation:</para>
42
43<screen><userinput>./configure</userinput></screen>

45<para>Compile some support routines:</para>
46
47<screen><userinput>make -C lib</userinput></screen>
48
49<para>Since only a couple of the utilities contained in this package
50are needed, build only those:</para>
51
52<screen><userinput>make -C mount mount umount
53make -C text-utils more</userinput></screen>
54
55<para>Now copy these programs to the temporary tools directory:</para>
