Bug#37933: problems during glibc build on m68k
Package: glibc
Version: 2.1.1-5
Hi Joel!
I've now managed to recompile glibc2.1 for m68k (we should at least
test it sometimes... :-). During the build, I've encountered the
following problems (I've fixed them manually to avoid rebuilding the
whole biest :-)
1) install-locales in locatedata
During execution of the target, a lot of errors were printed because
included locales couldn't be found. Finally make exits with an error:
make[1]: Entering directory `/usr/local/build/roman/glibc-2.1.1/build/glibc-2.1.
1/localedata'
while read locale charset; do \
case $locale in \#*) continue;; esac; \

AFAICS the reason is that I didn't have the locales package installed.
localedef searches for copied locales in ., /usr/share/locale, and
/usr/share/i18n/locales. But the cwd for the command is
build/glibc-2.1.1/localedata, and the locale files are in the subdir
locale/, so they're not found.
However, I think it's not useful to include the installed locale
files, since they're (in the general case) an older version.
I solved the problem by symlinking the missing files to the parent dir
(where localedef searches for them). I haven't checked if localedef
has some option to change the include path. If yes, some option should
be added.
2) typo in debian/depflags.mk
In the m68k part of depflags.mk (line 31) there's a typo in the
definition of libc_control_flags. At the end of the Conflicts list,
there's an additional comma. dpkg --build later complains about this
(syntax error).
