1952	Different configure commands for toolchain	robert@…	lfs-book@…	"Once in a while I'll accidentally skip the:
{{{
mkdir ../binutils-build
cd ../binutils-build
}}}
and run:
{{{
../binutils-2.17/configure
}}}
and the configure script will still run. I propose changing these commands to:
{{{
mkdir obj
cd obj
}}}
and
{{{
../configure
}}}
so that the configure command only works if you're in the build directory. It's more idiot-proof, and is also the example I've found in the official GCC build instructions.
