Closed pg83 closed 1 year ago

pg83 commented 1 year ago

https://github.com/gavinhoward/bc/blob/master/scripts/safe-install.sh#L28 creates hard dependency loop on previously available bc for install process, which can be not available:

in bootstrap environments
in cross-compile environments

Whoops. I did not think of that. My bad.

This should be fixed in 313738df7f6d65875dd91ef63565227d0f782472 and 349cd801d5a7f4ab2fad76096d271397aa738063. I put out 6.3.1 because I know for a fact that Linux from Scratch will need these changes too, and they usually just grab the latest release.

I hope this new release works for you. Please close this issue if it does.
