Details on this package are located in Section 8.31.2, “Contents of Bash.”
The Bash package contains the Bourne-Again SHell.
Prepare Bash for compilation:
./configure --prefix=/usr \
--build=$(support/config.guess) \
--host=$LFS_TGT \
--without-bash-malloc
The meaning of the configure options:
--without-bash-malloc
This option turns off the use of Bash's memory allocation
(malloc) function which is
known to cause segmentation faults. By turning this option
off, Bash will use the malloc
functions from Glibc which are more stable.
Compile the package:
make
Install the package:
make DESTDIR=$LFS install
Move the excutable to where it is expected:
mv $LFS/usr/bin/bash $LFS/bin/bash
Make a link for the programs that use sh for a shell:
ln -sv bash $LFS/bin/sh
