 Posted: Fri Dec 03, 2004 6:18 am Post subject: bootstrap and USE flags |
 |
|
I am not sure but I read some docs on gentoo and I guess USE flags have nothing to do with bootstrap process.Now, I read one post in forum , one gentoo user did succeed in bootstrapping by unsetting USE flag https://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic.php?t=59006&highlight=libsed
If I set USE flags and kick boostrap.sh it do give error for -lc flag while linking libsed.a "cannot found -lc" . Weird, if bootstrap doesnt need USE flags, then why removing USE flags have to solve "-lc" error of libsed.a linking.(still I didnt try out empty USE flags)
Correct me if bootstrap actually uses USE flags.. |

There was static flag in USE which after removing , bootstrap went fine
( after re-reading use.desc file)
I guessed first phase is static linking for toolchains and second phase is
dynamically linking with new glibc. But, there are comments in bootstrap.sh that second phase is remvoed to speed up things.
May be that was giving trouble for static flag while I was expecting during
dynamic linking it should have given error. |
