Util-linux doesn't use the freshly installed headers and libraries from the /tools directory. This is fixed by altering the configure script:
cp configure configure.backup sed "s@/usr/include@/tools/include@g" configure.backup > configure |
Prepare Util-linux for compilation:
./configure |
Compile some support routines:
make -C lib |
And, since you'll need only a couple of the utilities contained in this package, build just those:
make -C mount mount umount make -C text-utils more |
Now copy these programs to the temporary tools directory:
cp mount/{,u}mount text-utils/more /tools/bin
