problem in making glibc-2.1.2


 
Hello sir ,

Here is my problem
 

The following  are the packages in my system( i am mentioning
the packages which are relavent to my problem ) : -

    1] glibc- 2.0.7-29

    2] kernel - 2.2.0 - 0.3

    3] kernel headers - 2.2.0 - 0.3

    4] gcc - 2.7.2.3 - 14

    5] binutils - 2.9.1.0.15

    6] make   -  3.76.1-5
 
 
 

I do not have root permission. My working directory is /home/ravi

 I want  to install glibc-2.1.2  in my directory( i.e.; /home/ravi) , for
this i have done the following : -
 

 1]  I  have  downloaded zipped file of glibc-2.1.2  and put it in the
      directory /home/ravi/GNU1  and unpacked it in the same directory.

 2] i read the INSTALL file  and accordingly downloaded the required
       versions of  :
       gcc-2.8.1, make-3.77 , binutils-2.9.1
       and  put   all these files in the directory /home/ravi/GNU1
 

  3]  now  i compiled and installed gcc-2.8.1 , make-3.77 and binutils-2.9.1
       in the  GNU1 directory.

  4]  while configuring gcc-2.8.1,make-3.77 & binutils-2.9.1 i have given the
       "prefix option = GNU1/bin" and " host option = i386-pc-linux-gnu"
 

   5]  now i set the PATH in .bash_profile  as
          export PATH=/home/ravi/GNU1/bin:

            when i echo $PATH , it  outputs the
            PATH i set , so no problem in PATH
 
   6]  now if run gcc - v , make -v , binutils -v the  output
         is showing the versions which i have installed
         viz., gcc-2.8.1 , binutils-2.9.1 and make - 3.77
         so i suppose that nothing went wrong till  this step.

    7]  Now I created glibc-build in GNU1 directory
         cd to glibc-build and ran the configure command
         with the options as shown below

        bash$  ../glibc-2.1.2/configure  --enable-add-ons = linuxthreads,crypt
                                                                  >  prefix=/home/ravi/GNU1/bin
                                                                  >   host=i386-pc-linux-gnu

 
             it  configures successfully.

      8 ] now i typed 'make'

                it produced lot of output but finally it produced the following
error messages : -

/home/ravi/GNU1/glibc-build/libc.so.6: undefined reference to `__libc_cleanup_e
make[2]: *** [/home/ravi/GNU1/glibc-build/db2/makedb] Error 1
make[2]: Leaving directory `/home/ravi/GNU1/glibc-2.1.2/db2'
make[1]: *** [db2/others] Error 2
make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/ravi/GNU1/glibc-2.1.2'
make: *** [all] Error 2
 

can u please explain what went wrong ; i badly need
  to install glibc-2.1.2
 

thanks/regards
