As the subject says I cannot recompile grub. Everytime I get "checking whether the C compiler works... no". I explicitely installed all packages from http://kojipkgs.fedoraproject.org/packages/grub/0.97/74.fc15/data/logs/x86_6... and have attached those in the packages.log file. The only thing that's missing is the glibc32 package but it conflicts with glibc-2.14-2.i686. As you can see from the attached build.log the error arises in the middle of the compilation. What am I missing?
Anyone any ideas?
To compile grub on x86_64, which compiles as 32-bit, you need at least glibc.i686, glibc-devel.i686 and maybe also glibc-static.i686 in addition to x86_64 packages. grub seems to BuildRequires at least /usr/lib/crt1.o, so that should take care of requiring glibc-devel.i686.

I saw that I already had glibc.i686 and glibc-devel.i686 installed on my system. The missing part was the glibc-static.i686. But as you can see from the build log here http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/getfile?taskID=3170489&name=root.log only the glibc-static.x86_64 was fetched and installed and there is no mention of the i686 version. And the dependencies doesn't complain about the missing glibc-static.i686 either. Maybe this should be hard-coded as a dependency.
Now the package can be recomppiled.
