Unable to compile glibc-dev / glibc-locale

I would to compile glibc and its dependencies. I work from a chroot created with tazdev (last Rolling-core updated)

First, although I don't use the [c]install[/c] option, the cooked packages are installed (this doesn't happen with Rolling-core64). So, I had to modify /usr/bin/cook to avoid this because installing glibc breaks the chroot: messages

[c]busybox: error while loading shared libraries: libc.so.6: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory[/c]

each time I use cook or tazpkg.

This done,  glibc and glibc-base seem to be compiled and packaged correctly despite some error messages, it is not possible to compile glibc-dev and glibc-locale ([c]ERROR: empty package[/c]).

I compiled a few other packages for test; I can see sometimes some error messages but packages are created.

Where can the problem come from for glibc-dev an glibc-locale?

Your "output-cook-glibc.txt" containing error with newer binutils from >=2.31:

/tmp/cchDxqrf.s: Assembler messages:

/tmp/cchDxqrf.s: Error: `_obstack@GLIBC_2.0' can't be versioned to common symbol '_obstack_compat'

Use this patch for build with newer binutils:

@ Saipul and mojo,

I'll have a look at it. Thanks a lot at both of you.
