Toolchain texinfo / util-linux use the ncurses header of the host system

Description

If I try to compile the texinfo and util-linux package the gcc of my host says that their is no ncurses header available. I fully agree, their is no header under /usr/include, rather I would like to use the compiled header in /tools/include.

The only idea I got is to use the fresh compiled gcc, these is comiled to use /tools/include.

texinfo: CC=/tools/bin/cc &&configure --prefix=/usr

util-liunx: export CC=/tools/bin/cc && configure ... && unset CC

Is that okay?

No, it is definitely not OK. It means you must have missed something in the book. It is possible you don't have the PATH set correctly - what is the output of "echo $PATH"? Also, this Trac ticket exists for reporting issues with the book, not for asking for support in building the system. Please use the lfs-support mailing list for any further issues.

Note: See TracTickets for help on using tickets.
