imx28 dhcp compiling error

[michelleweng]

These days I need to build dhcp function in file system, I did it just like this, and I can get dhcp-3.0.3b1 source code in ltib/rpm/BUILD.

package list->[*]dhcp

                    [*] Include DHCP server

                    [*] Include DHCP client support

But during the compiling, I meet some weird problems.

First, it said that

"Unknown system.   If this is an SCO system running ODT 3.0 or"

    echo "higher, type \`\`./configure sco''.   Otherwise, this is a"

    echo "configuration that isn't supported or hasn't been tested."

Then I modify the configure file in dhcp-3.0.3b1 by adding sysname="linux", and it can pass.But some other problems followed.

mv $RPM_BUILD_ROOT//opt/freescale/rootfs/arm/usr/man  $RPM_BUILD_ROOT//opt/freescale/rootfs/arm//usr/share

mv: cannot stat `/home/michelle/ltib/tmp/dhcp//opt/freescale/rootfs/armusr/man`: No such file or directory

chmod 755 $RPM_BUILD_ROOT//opt/freescale/rootfs/arm//sbin/dhclient-script

chmod: cannot access `/home/michelle/ltib/tmp/dhcp//opt/freescale/rootfs/arm//sbin/dhclient-script`:No such file or directory.

Did anyone meet these problems and please give me some hints? or else I have to build another new version of dhcp myself. Thank you very much.

Seems the path is incorrect. Have you try to modify it?

There is a .spec file for each package in LTIB (under ltib/dist/lfs-5.1/). You can modify the .spec file to fit your package compiling and building.

Or you can go to the source code folder directly (under ltib/rpm/BUILD/<package>/ ). Then modify the Makefile and config file. and then 'make' the source code directly.

It's crazy how often vague, useless answers are given on this forum and deemed 'The Correct Answer'.

The fact is that this version of DHCP is not able to understand a 64 bit linux build environment. This should do the trick.

Untar, and run ./dhcp.sh [/path/to/ltib]

I think I have the same problem as you, my system is 64bit. The link to the patch doesn't work. Do you remember what needed to be patched?

Hi,Stephen:

Thanks for your response. Actually my host is 32bit Ubuntu11.10 running in virtualbox.Jimmy and Freescale's FAE both confirmed that it is the problem of wrong path defined in ltib/dist/lfs-5.1/dhcp/dhcp.spec. After modified it, the DHCP compiling error problem in ltib is fixed and can run well in my board.

#mv $RPM_BUILD_ROOT/%{pfx}/usr/man  $RPM_BUILD_ROOT/%{pfx}/%{_prefix}/share

#chmod 755 $RPM_BUILD_ROOT/%{pfx}/%base/sbin/dhclient-script

My project was so urgent that I just tagged Jimmy's answer as correct answer without detailed information. But I don't think

the answer is crazy, vague and useless, it is just 'The Correct Answer'. :smileyhappy:

Maybe you have answered another compiling error problem but not mine, hope it can help people who meet it.
