RE: [Ltib] ltib -m scbuild and the configure file

[Stephens, Peter A.]

Thanks Peter (nice to know there are more of us out there - The rest will be assimilated...),  Good suggestion.  If I do it this way, will it still cross-compile?  Probably as that is the intent behind LTIB, but I am wondering under what conditions I would need configure then?  Is this only for special processing not completed by LTIB?

Sure.  Looking at dist/lfs-5.1/template/template.spec (which I assume
you copied into test.spec), if you replace line 23 (the ./configure ...)
with your command to build (i.e "make"), it will do that....
