%general-entities; %patches-entities; ]> Bash temporary system Fix a minor issue during the build when cross-compling: cp Makefile.in Makefile.in.orig sed -e "s@size \$(Program)@${LFS_TARGET}-&@g" Makefile.in.orig > Makefile.in ./configure --prefix=/tools --with-curses \ --without-bash-malloc --host=${LFS_TARGET} --with-curses This do ... --without-bash-malloc This options turns off the use of Bash's memory allocation (malloc) function which is known to cause segmentation faults. By turning this option off, Bash will use the malloc functions from Glibc which are more stable. Make a link for the programs that use sh for a shell: ln -s bash /tools/bin/sh
