Hi there, |
| 2 |
|

I've used uclibc for quite some time for embedded projects of mine, |
| 4 |
and begun using gentoo about a year ago. I'd like to take your |
| 5 |
uclibc-only work for a spin, but have failed at that. Is there a |
| 6 |
setp-by-step writeup of how to do it? I'm not familiar enough with the |
| 7 |
gentoo internals (yet) to find it out myself I'm afraid (is there a |
| 8 |
doc on masking in gentoo somewhere??). |

What I did, |
| 11 |
|
| 12 |
1) Get and install stage1 tarball intoan empty dir, |
| 13 |
2) mount -o ro -bind /usr/portage /playground/usr/portage |
| 14 |
3) chroot /playground /bin/bash |
| 15 |
4) cd /usr/portage |
| 16 |
5) scripts/bootstrap.sh |
| 17 |
6) changed /etc/make.profile to point to ../usr/portage/profiles/uclibc/hardened |
| 18 |
as a guess having read the REAME in there. |
| 19 |
7) emerge -pve system (seemed to remove glibc) |
| 20 |
8) Nothing else happened, and no sightings of uclibc (thought the profile change would bring that in, HOWTO on profiles anywhere?) |
| 21 |
9) emerge uclibc complains about missing kernel sources (should I have installed stage2? I figured the less stuff in there the less things to fork-lift to uclibc, I guess everthing needs to be recompiled for uclibc) |
| 22 |
|
| 23 |
Stuck. Should I apply some patches to something? Following the list |
| 24 |
discussions I figured that you have most of the work-in-progress in |
| 25 |
the tree and use of ACCEPT_KEYWORDS=~x86" would pull it in, and we/I |
| 26 |
could report any breakage.... (masking is a bit unchartered territory |
| 27 |
for me, so there might be aspects of this I dont get yet...) |
| 28 |
|
| 29 |
I'd be glad to test this if you can provide guidance.... |
