From http://svn.exactcode.de/t2/trunk/package/base/glibc32/make-install-lib-all.patch Rule to install all needed libraries, not just the ones installed by install-lib, yet not install programs. Needed because we can't use the main install target, as we can't build programs before we have the final gcc installed; linking fails because libeh.a is not present, and glibc insists on linking programs with that library. diff -Naur glibc-2.3.4.orig/Makerules glibc-2.3.4/Makerules --- glibc-2.3.4.orig/Makerules 2004-12-15 20:52:39.000000000 +0200 +++ glibc-2.3.4/Makerules 2005-02-19 15:16:31.415125176 +0200 @@ -844,6 +844,13 @@ installed-libcs := $(foreach o,$(filter-out .os,$(object-suffixes-for-libc)),\ $(inst_libdir)/$(patsubst %,$(libtype$o),\ $(libprefix)$(libc-name))) + +install-lib-all: $(inst_slibdir)/libc.so$(libc.so-version) \ + $(inst_slibdir)/libc-$(version).so \ + $(inst_libdir)/libc.so \ + $(inst_libdir)/libc.a \ + install-lib + install: $(installed-libcs) $(installed-libcs): $(inst_libdir)/lib$(libprefix)%: lib $(+force) $(make-target-directory)
