Can you please attach full output of build.sh invocation?

[Phrunsys]

Build process involves compiling cross-compiler which in turn will build Minix system. This is expected behaviour.

[Phrunsys]

So why not GCC ?

Because of licensing issues - gcc is distributed under GNU GPL, and Minix is BSD licensed

[stux2000]

Hi Phrunsys,

Thank you for your interest in Minix. To answer your question briefly: gcc isn't used primarily for licensing but also some technical reasons. However, since this is the github issues system, I'd request that the discussion centers around your original bmake issue.

That said, this issue seems to center more about the usage of bmake and how to build parts of Minix than a specific problem with the Minix build tools. Instead, I would highly recommend posting any questions related to this matter on the google groups mailing list: https://groups.google.com/g/minix3

Thanks, -stux

[Phrunsys]

I get but it's taking longer cross compiling.

Ok. So if I get clang locally installed before building minix. Do I save trouble and time of building Clang ?

1) No 2) As stux said, please post general questions on building minix in minix google group. I think this bmake issue is resolved and issue may be closed.

[Phrunsys]

The malformed conditional issue was resolved by; for var in ${list} Not; for var in list As it's how it comes written from the repo. Kindly update those loops.

Kindly update those loops.

Hello. It appears you are trying to report a bug for MINIX 3.2.1. Can you also reproduce the issue with the latest MINIX version (3.4.0-rc6)? MINIX 3.2.1 has been released already, a long time ago, and is no longer subject to bug fixes.

[Phrunsys]

That malformed issues still stands when you directly call bmake. Cross Compilation via script works but a manual ivokation of bmake from the source tree fails

What made you invoke bmake directly from the cross-compilation host system? Is there documentation that lists that as a step to perform? If so, could you please link that here?
