compiling coreutils
Hi gurus
I am trying to compile coreutils for studying purposes. I downloaded package (exact version which target system already contains) and tried following:

Code:
./configure
make

but compiling ands with some header file dependency problem. Then I tried compile particular binary

Code:
cd src
gcc id.c -o id

also tried

Code:
export CFLAGS="-static -02 -g"
./configure
cd src
gcc -std=gnu99 -I../lib -static -O2 -g -MT uniq.o -MD -MP -MF .deps/uniq.Tpo -c -o uniq.o uniq.c

But there was also missing header files problem.

So I tried to find particular file on system and link to /usr/include location for example:
Code:
ln -s /usr/lib/syslinux/com32/include/syslinux/config.h /usr/include/config.h
ln -s /usr/lib/syslinux/com32/include/com32.h /usr/include/com32.h
ln -s /usr/lib/syslinux/com32/include/klibc/compiler.h /usr/include/klibc/compiler.h
ln -s /usr/lib/gcc/i686-pc-linux-gnu/4.5.2/plugin/include/system.h /usr/include/system.h
ln -s /usr/lib/gcc/i686-pc-linux-gnu/4.5.2/plugin/include/safe-ctype.h /usr/include/safe-ctype.h
ln -s /usr/lib/gcc/i686-pc-linux-gnu/4.5.2/plugin/include/hwint.h /usr/include/hwint.h
ln -s /usr/lib/gcc/i686-pc-linux-gnu/4.5.2/plugin/include/filenames.h /usr/include/filenames.h

maybe further more header files I dont know - but the result is the same header file problem.
I tried the metioned procedure on Archbang and Fedora (on both the coreutils was the same version whih is already installed and is working properly)

Thanks a lot
