glibc-2.24 fails to compile on LFS system, log says -V argument is not recognised, but i'm not passing -V

979 views Asked by At

I am stuck on step 5.7 of Linux From Scratch 7.10. I'm trying to compile glibc, but its returning the following error:

checking build system type... x86_64-pc-linux-gnu
checking host system type... x86_64-pc-linux-gnu
checking for gcc... gcc
checking for suffix of object files... configure: error: in `/mnt/lfs/sources/glibc-2.24/build':
configure: error: cannot compute suffix of object files: cannot compile

Contents of config.log:

This file contains any messages produced by compilers while
running configure, to aid debugging if configure makes a mistake.

It was created by GNU C Library configure (see version.h), which was
generated by GNU Autoconf 2.69.  Invocation command line was

  $ ../configure --prefix=/tools --host= --build=x86_64-pc-linux-gnu --enable-kernel=2.6.32 --with-headers=/tools/include libc_cv_forced_unwind=yes libc_cv_c_cleanup=yes

Your problem is not gcc -V.

Your problem is this:

configure:2608: gcc -c   conftest.c >&5
gcc: error trying to exec 'cc1': execvp: No such file or directory

This means that the gcc you are using is not installed correctly, and can't actually compile anything.
