Fedora 26 System Setup for CC



  • Hi everyone I'm trying to do a Cross Compilation, and my current host is running a fedora 26 release, i've cloned the official repository https://github.com/OnionIoT/source.git and when i tried to
    $make menuconfig
    i get a make error:

    Checking 'case-sensitive-fs'... ok.

    Build dependency: Please install GNU 'patch'

    Prerequisite check failed. Use FORCE=1 to override.
    make: *** [/home/prac/Omega2_src_official/source/include/toplevel.mk:153: staging_dir/host/.prereq-build] Error 1

    I don't know what is the GNU patch that the script is looking for...
    Does anyone knows what is the patch that it is required ?
    Does anyone knows where is the prereq script source? maybe if could read the script source i can figure out what is this GNU patch...
    Tahnkyou!



  • @Miguel-Miranda maybe it needs the GNU patch application installed on the build machine?
    http://savannah.gnu.org/projects/patch/



  • Thanks for the reply @Douglas-Kryder.
    I've already installed the GNU patch app

    $patch -v

    But I get the same error... šŸ˜ž
    BR,



  • @Miguel-Miranda
    Could it be that it needs a later version?
    The patch in my ubuntu build environment is 2.7.5:

    $ patch -v
    GNU patch 2.7.5
    Copyright (C) 2003, 2009-2012 Free Software Foundation, Inc.

    Or re-run make with -j1 V=s parameters which will give you more verbose output that could identify what is going wrong.



  • Hi @cas thanks for the reply, i've changed my patch version to 2.7.5 but still the error


    $make -j1 V=s
    ...
    Build dependency: Please install GNU 'patch'

    Prerequisite check failed. Use FORCE=1 to override.

    make: *** [/home/prac/Omega2_src_official/source/include/toplevel.mk:198: world] Error 2

    I think there is a problem with my toplevel.mk
    #153 : @$(_SINGLE)$(NO_TRACE_MAKE) -j1 -r -s -f $(TOPDIR)/include/pre req-build.mk prereq 2>/dev/null || {
    echo "Prerequisite check failed. Use FORCE=1 to override." ;
    false;

    #198: @+$(PREP_MK) $(NO_TRACE_MAKE) -r -s prereq]


    it is a little weird though, because in the repository of https://github.com/WereCatf/source.git i don't have this error, instead i've a Download fail errors

    I'm not sure why, but i'm keep looking... as i said before the weird think is that i didn't get stuck in the third party repo with the prereq script...
    git log of the official repo i'm using
    HEAD -> lede-17.01, origin/lede-17.01, origin/HEAD
