Configuring glibc

[new_comer]

Hello to all,


I have a problem in configuring the glibc library. The error is as follows:


configure: error: you must configure in a separate build directory


I have unpacked the source file and tried to configure it from the source extracted then the error comes. Could I know how to build a separate directory for the configuration and compilation ? Many thanks



Best regards

create another folder..
/usr/src/glibc-build

cd into that folder and configure from there ...
/usr/src/glibc-build#> /usr/src/glibc-*.*/configure
