System Locales

Description

Currently the temp-system is built without locales. This is causing a lot of the tests up to when they're installed in the final-system to fail. You can't run make localedata/install-locales when cross-compiling glibc because it tries to run the localdef in glibc-build/localdef/programs/localdef with: 

I18NPATH=. GCONV_PATH=$(common-objpfx)iconvdata LC_ALL=C \
$(common-objpfx)elf/ld.so --library-path $(rpath-link) $(common-objpfx)locale/localedef

Where $(common-objpfx) is the path to the glibc-build dir with a trailing /.

I can think of 2 solutions to this.

1. We can use the host's localedef.
-or-
2. We can modify glibc's build system to build us a localedef-host and then use localedef-host to install the locales. This will also take care of the case where localdef isn't installed on the host.

I'm currently working on implementing 2.

  • version changed from unstable to 1.0.

  • summary changed from Temp-System Locales to System Locales.
  • version changed from 1.0 to 2.0.
  • milestone changed from CLFS 1.0 to CLFS 2.0.

The locales were found to not be the source of the test-suite problems. The solution was to symlink /tools/lib{,32,64}/libstd* to /usr/lib{,32,64} commited in r1917.

Changing the status of this ticket because this ticket still affects clfs-2.0. Glibc is only cross-compiled.
