M4 - A Macro Processing Language
The m4
package provides a macro processor used heavily by the GNU Make utility.
There is an unfortunate bug that breaks the build on many systems. To fix this, please apply the patch linked here, like so from within the unpacked source code:
patch -p1 <gnulib-libio.patch
To build it, run the following command as the builder
user:
pushd /source
tar xvf m4-1.4.18.tar.xz
pushd make-1.4.18
./configure --prefix=/cross-tools
make
make install
popd
popd
NOTE: We will not build the test suits of various packages during the cross-compile phase as they will not accurately run in many cases.
