Hello, This bug is a continuation from http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=35752 and http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=35532. It appears that native retargeting of the compiler is not supported in the 4.3/4.4 series in favor of the sysroot option. When trying to build a pass 1 compiler with combined gcc and binutils in a single directory, sysroot seems to be appending an extra sysroot prefix in the linker during libgcc linking.
The current build setup I'm trying is to install in order to the sysroot directory of /tools: Linux headers glibc-pass-1 full compile with native toolchain so that crt files exist. bootstrap gcc+binutils toolchain against new glibc. I have tried configuring the gcc+binutils toolchain with the following three sets of options and it still has the same problem: configue --prefix=/tools/usr \ --with-sysroot=/tools \ --with-pic \ --disable-nls \ --disable-libmudflap \ --disable-libssp \ --enable-languages=c \ --enable-checking=release \ --disable-werror \ --enable-bootstrap configue --prefix=/tools/usr \ --with-sysroot=/tools \ --with-build-sysroot=/tools \ --with-pic \ --disable-nls \ --disable-libmudflap \ --disable-libssp \ --enable-languages=c \ --enable-checking=release \ --disable-werror \ --enable-bootstrap configue --prefix=/usr \ --with-sysroot=/tools \ --with-build-sysroot=/tools \ --with-pic \ --disable-nls \ --disable-libmudflap \ --disable-libssp \ --enable-languages=c \ --enable-checking=release \ --disable-werror \ --enable-bootstrap And building with: LDFLAGS_FOR_TARGET="--sysroot=/tools" CPPFLAGS_FOR_TARGET="--sysroot=/tools" make Everything compiles up to stage 1 libgcc which errors out on the final link command with the linker error of: /media/disk-3/build/tools/toolchain-pass-1/build/gcc/../ld/ld-new: cannot find /tools/lib/libc.so.6 inside /tools Unfortunately, /tools/lib/libc.so.6 exists and if I create a link to /tools inside of the tools directory (recursive symlink) the link will complete and continue to stage 2 I'm pretty sure I shouldn't have to create a link to . for this to work properly . -- Summary: Bootstrap of combined gcc + binutils, with --enable- shared, with sysroot fails Product: gcc Version: 4.3.0 Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: critical Priority: P3 Component: bootstrap AssignedTo: unassigned at gcc dot gnu dot org ReportedBy: oblivian at users dot sourceforge dot net GCC build triplet: i686-pc-linux-gnu GCC host triplet: i686-pc-linux-gnu GCC target triplet: i686-pc-linux-gnu http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=35804
