coreutils: too many arguments to function 'gen_tempname'

[yermandu]

I am compiling the Step 6.14 book from ​http://cross-lfs.org/view/svn/x86/temp-system/coreutils.html And i receive the follow error:

  CC     mkstemp.o
mkstemp.c: In function 'rpl_mkstemp':
mkstemp.c:43: error: too many arguments to function 'gen_tempname'
make[4]: *** [mkstemp.o] Error 1
make[4]: Leaving directory `/pub/lfs/sources/coreutils-7.6/lib'
make[3]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1

I allready app the patch coreutils-7.6-uname-1.patch and receive the same error.

This is fixed upstream: ​http://www.mail-archive.com/bug-coreutils@gnu.org/msg17816.html

I put a patch here: ​http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/~robert/new/patches/coreutils-7.6-tempname.diff

[Joe Ciccone]

That patch is unnecessary. A simple config.cache entry will suffice.
