Description

I am going through the book (development version) for the first time using Ubuntu 11.10 as the base OS.

At chapter 5.7 (Glibc-2.14.1), make would not run due to unescaped slashes on a few lines (19, 59, and a few others) of glibc-2.14.1/scripts/gen-sorted.awk.

Escaping the slashes allowed make to compile, as expected.

Update: I believe the offending lines are 19, 59, and 65, judging from the temporary files created by Emacs. I did not create a patch before changing and saving the file, sorry.

I'm going to mark this as invalid. Discuss problems like these on lfs-support. The most likely issue is that you are not using gawk as explained in the host system requirements.

Also, the default shell for Ubuntu is dash. Make sure you changed to to bash.
