make menuconfig produces error

Postby driverC » Sun Apr 24, 2011 5:56 am

Hi !

I am trying to run linux-2.6.32.39 with grsecurity-2.2.2-2.6.32.39-201104232142.patch. The system is a new RHEL 5.6 server. Once I apply the grsecurity patch (using the command: patch -p0 < grsecurity-2.2.2-2.6.32.39-201104232142.patch) I am getting the error message below. The error message does not appear before I apply the patch and did not come up last time when I installed the patch for 2.6.32.38.

I am not an expert and don't really know what to do with this message.

HOSTCC scripts/basic/fixdep
cc1: error: unrecognized command line option "-Wno-empty-body"
make[1]: *** [scripts/basic/fixdep] Error 1
make: *** [scripts_basic] Error 2

Thanks for any ideas !

it's a gcc switch but apparently your version doesn't know it, for now you can just remove it from the main Makefile.
