cycle 17, day #1:
I did finish compile glibc 2.32. I got problems with the -flto switch that was include in my env variables. This was making the compilation break midway.
Just downloading the source code was a pain. I still have no idea why but from the server, if the remote repository URL protocol is git, connection is refused. If I clone the repo through https, all is fine.
I also got a configuration issue causing an error during the installation.
I'm documenting all these difficulties so that next time, things are going to be smoother.
I need to update my glibc rpm spec file for this new lib version.
I need to test the resulting rpm on a dummy vm to make sure that I won't brick my server when I install on the real machine.
Building the compiler and glibc was painfully hard and slow... Once those are completed, the rest is going to be soooo easy... A walk in the park..
