You need to use the proper flags to configure. config.cache is an implementation detail meant to speed things up; it is acceptable for it to disappear at any time. > export CFLAGS="-I /opt/mpc8250/tools/ppc_6xx/usr/include" > ../glibc-2.8/configure --prefix=/opt/mpc8250/tools/ppc_6xx/glibc-2.8 --host=powerpc-linux --without-tls --without-cvs --disable-profile --disable-debug --disable-shared --enable-threads=no --with-headers=/opt/mpc8250/tools/ppc_6xx/usr/include/ --cache-file=config.cache I strongly recommend you use a newer glibc. There are definitely some fixes to the PowerPC-specific parts of glibc, and that's just looking at the Debian changelog, not upstream's. > checking for sys/types.h... yes > checking for sys/stat.h... yes > checking for stdlib.h... yes > checking for string.h... yes > checking for memory.h... yes > checking for strings.h... yes > checking for inttypes.h... yes > checking for stdint.h... yes > checking for unistd.h... yes > checking for long double... yes > checking size of long double... configure: error: cannot compute sizeof (long double) > See `config.log' for more details. You should look at config.log and see why it fails. Search for the text "size of long double" and you'll probably find the right place. -- brian m. carlson / brian with sandals: Houston, Texas, US +1 832 623 2791 | http://www.crustytoothpaste.net/~bmc | My opinion only OpenPGP: RSA v4 4096b: 88AC E9B2 9196 305B A994 7552 F1BA 225C 0223 B187
