eglibc fails to build from source

[bibop554 - <bibop554@gmail.com>]

Hi all,

I try to build eglibc from source but it fails. I'm on Debian squeeze 6.0.3

I downloaded�[eglibc_2.11.3.orig.tar.gz] and�[eglibc_2.11.3-2.diff.gz] from�http://packages.debian.org/squeeze/libc6

Then:

gzip -d eglibc_2.11.3-2.diff.gz

tar xf eglibc_2.11.3.orig.tar.gz

cd eglibc-2.11.3/

patch < ../eglibc_2.11.3-2.diff � � � � � � � � � � �<- no errors

cd ../build/ � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � <- build/ is an empty directory

../eglibc-2.11.3/configure --prefix=$(pwd) � � �<- no fatal error

make -j 10

The compilation fails with the following error:

make[2]: *** No rule to make target `../manual/errno.texi', needed by `../sysdeps/gnu/errlist.c'. �Stop.

make[2]: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs....

make[2]: Leaving directory `/home/bibop554/compile_libc/eglibc-2.11.3/stdio-common'

make[1]: *** [stdio-common/subdir_lib] Error 2

make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/bibop554/compile_libc/eglibc-2.11.3'

make: *** [all] Error 2

Not sure if i made an error somewhere or if it is a bug.

Any help would be appreciated. Feel free to ask more information

Thanks
