Details on this package are located in Section 10.13.2, “Contents of Coreutils.”
The Coreutils package contains utilities for showing and setting the basic system characteristics.
The following command renames the internal implementation of futimens to gl_futimens as newer versions of Glibc provide an incompatible version:
sed -i "s/futimens/gl_&/" $(grep -lr futimens *)
Configure can not properly determine how to get free space when
cross-compiling, Without putting the following entry into
config.cache the df program will not be built.
echo "fu_cv_sys_stat_statfs2_bsize=yes" > config.cache
Prepare Coreutils for compilation:
./configure --prefix=/tools \
--build=${CLFS_HOST} --host=${CLFS_TARGET} \
--cache-file=config.cache
When we changed the futimens references, one of the files we
updated was touch.c. That change means the man Makefile will try to regenerate the man page
for touch, by executing the compiled touch program. If the target architecture cannot
be executed by the host system, the build will fail. The following
command fixes this by giving the man page a newer timestamp than
its corresponding source file:
touch man/touch.1
Compile the package:
make
Install the package:
make install
