     14<title>Glibc installation</title>
     15
     16<para>The Glibc build system is very well self-contained and will install
     17perfectly, even though our compiler specs file and linker are still pointing
     18at <filename>/tools</filename>. We cannot adjust the specs and linker before
     19the Glibc install, because the Glibc autoconf tests would then give bogus
     20results and thus defeat our goal of achieving a clean build.</para>
     21
     22<note><para>The test suite for Glibc in this section is considered
     23<emphasis>critical</emphasis>. Our advice is to not skip it under any
     24circumstance.</para></note>
     25
     26<para>Before starting to build Glibc, remember to unpack the Glibc-linuxthreads
     27again inside the <filename>glibc-&glibc-version;</filename> directory, and to
     28unset any environment variables that override the default optimization
     29flags.</para>
     30
     31<para>Though it is a harmless message, the install stage of Glibc will
     32complain about the absence of <filename>/etc/ld.so.conf</filename>. Fix this
     33annoying little warning with:</para>
     34
     35<screen><userinput>touch /etc/ld.so.conf</userinput></screen>
     36
     37<para>Then apply the same patch we used previously:</para>
     38                                                                               
     39<screen><userinput>patch -Np1 -i ../&glibc-sscanf-patch;</userinput></screen>
     40
     41<para>The Glibc documentation recommends building Glibc outside of the source
     42directory in a dedicated build directory:</para>
     43
     44<screen><userinput>mkdir ../glibc-build
     45cd ../glibc-build</userinput></screen>
     46
     47<para>Now prepare Glibc for compilation:</para>
     48
     49<screen><userinput>../glibc-&glibc-version;/configure --prefix=/usr \
     50&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;--disable-profile --enable-add-ons \
     51&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;--libexecdir=/usr/bin --with-headers=/usr/include</userinput></screen>
     52
     53<para>The meaning of the new configure options:</para>
     54
     55<itemizedlist>
     56<listitem><para><userinput>--libexecdir=/usr/bin</userinput>: This will
     57cause the <filename>pt_chown</filename> program to be installed in the
     58<filename>/usr/bin</filename> directory.</para></listitem>
     59
     60<listitem><para><userinput>--with-headers=/usr/include</userinput>: This
     61ensures that the kernel headers in <filename>/usr/include</filename> are used
     62for this build. If you don't pass this switch then the headers from
     63<filename>/tools/include</filename> are used which of course is not ideal
     64(although they should be identical). Using this switch has the advantage
     65that you will be informed immediately should you have forgotten to install the
     66kernel headers into <filename>/usr/include</filename>.</para></listitem>
     67</itemizedlist>
     68
     69<para>Compile the package:</para>
     70
     71<screen><userinput>make</userinput></screen>
     72
     73<para>Test the results:</para>
     74
     75<screen><userinput>make check</userinput></screen>
     76
     77<para>The test suite notes from <xref linkend="ch05-glibc"/> are still very much
     78appropriate here. Be sure to refer back there should you have any doubts.</para>
     79
     80<para>And install the package:</para>
     81
     82<screen><userinput>make install</userinput></screen>
     83
     84<para>The locales that can make your system respond in a different language
     85weren't installed by the above command. Do it with this:</para>
     86
     87<screen><userinput>make localedata/install-locales</userinput></screen>
     88
     89<para>An alternative to running the previous command is to install only those
     90locales which you need or want. This can be achieved using the
     91<userinput>localedef</userinput> command. Information on this can be found in
     92the <filename>INSTALL</filename> file in the
     93<filename>glibc-&glibc-version;</filename> tree. However,  there are a number
     94of locales that are essential for the tests of future packages to pass
     95correctly. The following instructions, in place of the install-locales
     96command above, will install the minimum set of locales necessary for the
     97tests to run successfully:</para>
     98
     99<screen><userinput>mkdir -p /usr/lib/locale
     100localedef -i de_DE -f ISO-8859-1 de_DE
     101localedef -i de_DE@euro -f ISO-8859-15 de_DE@euro
     102localedef -i en_HK -f ISO-8859-1 en_HK
     103localedef -i en_PH -f ISO-8859-1 en_PH
     104localedef -i en_US -f ISO-8859-1 en_US
     105localedef -i es_MX -f ISO-8859-1 es_MX
     106localedef -i fr_FR -f ISO-8859-1 fr_FR
     107localedef -i fr_FR@euro -f ISO-8859-15 fr_FR@euro
     108localedef -i it_IT -f ISO-8859-1 it_IT
     109localedef -i ja_JP -f EUC-JP ja_JP</userinput></screen>
     110
     111<para>Finally, build the linuxthreads man pages:</para>
     112
     113<screen><userinput>make -C ../&glibc-dir;/linuxthreads/man</userinput></screen>
     114
     115<para>And install these pages:</para>
     116
     117<screen><userinput>make -C ../&glibc-dir;/linuxthreads/man install</userinput></screen>
     118
