%general-entities; ]> E2fsprogs boot When cross-compiling, configure cannot determine sizes and assumes short=2, int=4, long=4, long long=8. This is not correct for PowerPC64. Adjust the values with: echo "ac_cv_sizeof_long=8" > config.cache CC="${CC} ${BUILD64}" PKG_CONFIG=true \ ../configure --prefix=/tools \ --enable-elf-shlibs --with-cc="${CC} ${BUILD64}" \ --with-linker=${LD} --build=${CLFS_HOST} --host=${CLFS_TARGET} \ --disable-libuuid --disable-libblkid \ --cache-file=config.cache
