gcc so that they link to the libraries installed in "tools" itself.
To accomplish your task you should use the -L and -Wl,-rpath option to
rebuild binutils and gcc. The -L option specifies which library paths
should be used by gcc during linking - this would then select your
libraries in the "tools" directory when gcc/collect2/ld searches for
unresolved symbol references. As a note: this is only used during
compilation/linking. If you now run the ldd command on the executable,
you'll see that the default (host) system libraries will still be used
at runtime. To get around this, -Wl,-rpath specifies which paths should
be searched by the runtime linker.
First of all thanks for the answer.
I tried to compile binutils with the following configure options:
CC="gcc -L/tools/lib -L/tools/lib32 -L/tools/lib64 -L/tools/libexec
-Wl,-rpath /tools/lib -Wl,-rpath /tools/lib32 -Wl,-rpath /tools/lib64
-Wl,-rpath /tools/libexec" ../binutils-2.19.1/configure --prefix=/tools
--build=x86_64-pc-linux-gnu --host=x86_64-pc-linux-gnu
--target=x86_64-pc-linux-gnu
but during make it says me:
checking size of int... configure: error: in
'/mnt/sda2/tmp/lfs/sources/binutils/binutils-build/libiberty':
configure: error: cannot compute sizeof (int), 77
See 'config.log' for more details.
Make[1]: *** [configure-libiberty] Error 1
I tried compiling gcc with similar configure options, but I obtain the
very same make error message.
What's wrong?
Thanks.
