While attempting to build linux from scratch ( see www.linuxfromscratch.org )
I run into a nasty problem with util-linux :

http://www.blastwave.org/dclarke/linux/util-linux.log

Essentially the configure process for util-linux 2.12 can not find the headers
even though they are all installed in /tools/include.

A separate test of gcc with a simple c program the #include <scsi/scsi.h>
works but the configure in util-linux does not. What's up?

It looks like you either don't have the kernel-headers installed
properly or possibly you didn't change the configure script to
look in the /tools/include for the header files.

configuring util-linux-2.12

You don't have <scsi/scsi.h>
You don't have <linux/blkpg.h>
You don't have <linux/kd.h>
You don't have <locale.h>
You don't have <langinfo.h>
You don't have <sys/user.h>
You don't have <asm/page.h>
You don't have <rpcsvc/nfs_prot.h>
You don't have <asm/types.h>
You don't have <linux/raw.h>

Did you run the lines below before trying to configure?

cp configure configure.backup
sed "s@/usr/include@/tools/include@g" configure.backup > configure

That is what I figured, but close examination and manually editing the
configure script to ensure that /usr/local and /usr/include are not mentioned
anywhere has not lead me anywhere yet.

yes. And very carefully too.

Further details may be see at :

http://www.blastwave.org/dclarke/linux/util-linux-2.12_fail.html

There you can see what happens when I edit the configure script to skip over
the check for old gcc ( using intel specific gcc options - useless on sparc )
and replacing the first test for scsi/scsi.h with a manual gcc command line.

That does actually find the header. But from where?

Thanks for the reply. I am presently rebuilding gcc and then I will
re-install the headers, again. Then I will try again. Otherwise I am
beginning to believe that something very odd is going on.

It's been a while since I built a LFS system but these should be
in /tools/include and should have been installed there in the
"Installing Linux-2.4.22 headers" section of Chapter 5 or in
Chapter 6 they would have been installed to the /usr/include
directory.
