Hi,
I am trying to compiling glibc-2.5 on Hurd but have not succeeded until now.
I list my steps below and expect your help.
(1) Install Hurd using Debian-k14-Hurd cd1. (2) apt-get libc0.3-dev and mig.
and so update glibc to version 2.5 and gcc to 4.1.3.
(3) Download lastest glibc-2.5 tarball (do I need to apply any patches?) (4) configure --without-cvs --disable-profile --prefix= ;
     make
I met some warnings and mainly two errors during the compiling course. The first error occurs in stdlib/fmtmsg.c and it says: uint32_t is not defined; another is in sysdeps/posix/getaddrinfo.c and it says: structure stat64 has no member st_mtim. I directly modified the two source files to let the compiling continue, however it finally broke down again when linking ld.so and says: no rule to make ld.map, needed by elf/ld.so. Anyone can help? Thanks!
Number one, I don't know if you meant it to come off that way but it is fairly obnoxious to "expect" help.

Number two, compiling glibc2.5 on Hurd from upstream is no small task. You should search through the mailing lists, as there are a ton of patches you need.

Is there a specific reason you need to compile glibc?

Good Luck,
