Relinking libroot.so
====================

To build glibc from source and relink libroot.so, you need the
following files:

	glibc-src.tgz
	headers-src.tgz
	infra-src.tgz
	libroot-obj.tgz
	libroot-link.sh

Create a root directory for the build, where all the archives will
be unpacked, and copy libroot-link.sh to that directory:

	$ mkdir /tmp/buildhome
	$ cp /some/path/libroot-link.sh /tmp/buildhome/libroot-link.sh
	$ cd /tmp/buildhome

This step is a hack to work around what may be a bug in tar extracting
archives containing files with '..' in the pathname:

	$ mkdir -p gnupro/bin/../lib/gcc-lib/i586-beos/2.9-beos-991026

Unpack the four tgz archives in the build root directory:

	$ tar -xzf /some/path/glibc-src.tgz
	$ tar -xzf /some/path/headers-src.tgz
	$ tar -xzf /some/path/infra-src.tgz
	$ tar -xzf /some/path/libroot-obj.tgz

Source the "setup.sh" file to set up some needed environment variables:

	$ source setup.sh

Build the glibc objects:

	$ cd src/kit/glibc
	$ make -kw nodll 2>&1 | tee make.log

Relink libroot.so:

	$ cd /tmp/buildhome
	$ sh libroot-link.sh
