Hello, I have a problem building gcc-linaro-arm-linux-gnueabihf toolchain for my x86_64 system. I download crosstool-ng (v1.13) and toolchain source code (4.8-2014.03) from http://releases.linaro.org/14.03/components/toolchain/binaries. I use the example configuration linaro-arm-linux-gnueabihf (obtained from ct-ng list-samples) and modify some entries using menuconfig option, like the local tarballs directory (pointing to downloaded toolchains source code directory) and the prefix directory (custom directory output).

This is the problem during the execution of "ct-ng build" command:

Highlighted in green some entries added for me in attemp to understand the execution secuence.

The error is triggered in the "configure-zlib" target of "${CT_TOP_DIR}/.build/arm-linux-gnueabihf/build/build-cc/Makefile". The "configure.log" of the "${CT_TOP_DIR}/.build/arm-linux-gnueabihf/build/build-cc/zlib/" directory shows some errors (I don't know if the are significants):

Some idea of what's the problem?

This is my system info: Linux afmoya-pc 3.2.0-4-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 3.2.57-3 x86_64 GNU/Linux

and some tools version installed in my system: gcc (Debian 4.7.2-5) 4.7.2 GNU Make 3.81 GNU Awk 4.0.1 ...
