Re: Glibc compile errors
This may be your problem. Do not configure in the source
directory. Also, I'm not sure what the i586-slackware-linux is.
Do you mean --build=i586-slackware-linux?
'i586-slackware-linux' is not even a legal. The format is:
CPU_TYPE-MANUFACTURER-KERNEL-OPERATING_SYSTEM or
CPU_TYPE-MANUFACTURER-OPERATING_SYSTEM.
So it should be something like i586-unknown-linux-gnu-slackware, or
something.
