Hello, I have some problems at cross-compiling LVM2-2.02.52 (latest release). The configure argument list is: --prefix=/usr --build=i486-unknown-linux-gnu --host=x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu --target=x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu --disable-nls. First of all, I noticed I can't build LVM2 from a directory different than that where I extracted the source tarball, because I get the following error when running make: make -C doc device-mapper make[1]: Entering directory `/mnt/clfs/sources/lvm2-build/doc' Makefile:21: ../../LVM2-2.02.52/make.tmpl: No such file or directory make[1]: *** No rule to make target `../../LVM2-2.02.52/make.tmpl'. Stop. make[1]: Leaving directory `/mnt/clfs/sources/lvm2-build/doc' make: *** [doc.device-mapper] Error 2 Even when building from the source directory, I get the following error message: x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu-gcc -o dmsetup dmsetup.o -fPIC -Wall -Wundef -Wshadow -Wcast-align -Wwrite-strings -Wmissing-prototypes -Wmissing-declarations -Wnested-externs -Winline -Wmissing-noreturn -Wformat-security -O2 -Wl,--export-dynamic -L../libdm -L../lib \ -L../libdm -ldevmapper -lrt -ldl -lncurses ../libdm/libdevmapper.so: undefined reference to `rpl_malloc' collect2: ld returned 1 exit status make[1]: *** [dmsetup] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory `/mnt/clfs/sources/LVM2-2.02.52/tools' make: *** [tools.device-mapper] Error 2 Don't know if it the right way to proceed, but I managed to fix this by adding ac_cv_func_malloc_0_nonnull=yes to the configure argument list. Despite of this make install now fails with: Installing example.conf as /mnt/clfs/etc/lvm/lvm.conf /usr/bin/install: cannot change ownership of `/mnt/clfs/etc/lvm/lvm.conf': Operation not permitted make[1]: *** [install_lvm2] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory `/mnt/clfs/sources/LVM2-2.02.52/doc' make: *** [doc.install] Error 2 Of course I can fix this error by running make install as root, but since I'm not installing in the host system (DESTDIR=/mnt/clfs), I'd like to run this command as a user. I suggest to add a --disable-makeinstall-chown configure option, as util-linux-ng package do. What do you think? Thanks. _______________________________________________ linux-lvm mailing list linux-lvm@redhat.com https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/linux-lvm read the LVM HOW-TO at http://tldp.org/HOWTO/LVM-HOWTO/
