Hi guys,

I'm trying to compile nfs-utils without the need for other packages, because i've no much room left on my asus wl500-gd for the OpenLDAP package and openssl...
so i tried to compile the nfs-utils by myself. I've read the manual on http://downloads.openwrt.org/docs/build … ation.html and folowed the instructions. But now, there is a problem while striping the binaries: "strip: Unable to recognise the format of the input file"

How can I prevent this package of being stripped?

Thanks

change the makefile of the package and remove the $(RSTRIP) call...

Hi wbx,
thank you for your reply, but it doesn't help.

Here is my Makefile for reviewing:

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
include $(TOPDIR)/rules.mk

PKG_NAME:=nfs-utils
PKG_VERSION:=1.0.7
PKG_RELEASE:=1

PKG_SOURCE_URL:=http://www.us.kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/nfs
PKG_SOURCE:=$(PKG_NAME)-$(PKG_VERSION).tar.gz
PKG_CAT:=zcat

PKG_BUILD_DIR:=$(BUILD_DIR)/$(PKG_NAME)-$(PKG_VERSION)
PKG_INSTALL_DIR:=$(PKG_BUILD_DIR)/ipkg-install

include $(TOPDIR)/package/rules.mk

$(eval $(call PKG_template,NFS_UTILS,nfs-utils,$(PKG_VERSION)-$(PKG_RELEASE),$(ARCH)))

$(PKG_BUILD_DIR)/.configured:
    (cd $(PKG_BUILD_DIR); rm -rf config.{cache,status} ; \
        $(TARGET_CONFIGURE_OPTS) \
        CFLAGS="$(TARGET_CFLAGS)" \
        CPPFLAGS="-I$(STAGING_DIR)/usr/include" \
        LDFLAGS="-L$(STAGING_DIR)/usr/lib" \
        ./configure \
          --prefix=/ \
          --target=$(GNU_TARGET_NAME) \
          --host=$(GNU_TARGET_NAME) \
          --build=$(GNU_HOST_NAME) \
          --program-prefix="" \
          --program-suffix="" \
          --enable-nfsv3 \
          --disable-gss \
          --disable-nfsv4 \
          --with-statduser=root \
          --with-bar="$(STAGING_DIR)/usr" \
          $(DISABLE_LARGEFILE) \
          $(DISABLE_NLS) \
    );
    touch $@

$(PKG_BUILD_DIR)/.built:
    rm -rf $(PKG_INSTALL_DIR)
    mkdir -p $(PKG_INSTALL_DIR)
    $(MAKE) -C $(PKG_BUILD_DIR) \
        $(TARGET_CONFIGURE_OPTS) \
        install_prefix="$(PKG_INSTALL_DIR)" \
        all install
    touch $@

$(IPKG_NFS_UTILS):
    install -d -m0755 $(IDIR_NFS_UTILS)/usr/sbin
    cp -fpR $(PKG_INSTALL_DIR)/usr/sbin/nfs-utils $(IDIR_NFS_UTILS)/usr/sbin
    $(RSTRIP) $(IDIR_NFS_UTILS)
    $(IPKG_BUILD) $(IDIR_NFS_UTILS) $(PACKAGE_DIR)

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
the strip error looks like folowing:

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
...
mkdir -p /home/pfeifer/openwrt/src/openwrt/build_mipsel/nfs-utils-1.0.7/ipkg-install//sbin
install -m 755 -s exportfs /home/pfeifer/openwrt/src/openwrt/build_mipsel/nfs-utils-1.0.7/ipkg-install//sbin/exportfs
strip: Unable to recognise the format of the input file /home/pfeifer/openwrt/src/openwrt/build_mipsel/nfs-utils-1.0.7/ipkg-install//sbin/exportfs
install: strip fehlgeschlagen
make[5]: *** [install] Fehler 1

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Please, can anyone help me?

Thanks

The "-s" option passed to the "install" command would strip the binary. You should remove it in original makefiles.
