[oe] do_configure failed : coreutils_7.2.bb

[Jean-Michel Hautbois]

Hi there !

I am currently trying to bitbake coreutils, on the stable branch, and
I have this error :

$ bitbake coreutils

module is deprecated

When I am looking at the log file, it suggests to have a look in the
config.log file... Which contains more than 4500 lines...

checking whether mbrtowc handles incomplete characters... guessing yes
checking whether mbrtowc works as well as mbtowc... guessing yes
checking whether mbrtowc handles a NULL string argument... configure:
error: in `/opt/stuff/work/angstrom-dev/work/i586-angstrom-linux/coreutils-7.2-r0/c
   oreutils-7.2':
configure: error: cannot run test program while cross compiling
See `config.log' for more details.
FATAL: oe_runconf failed

I join you the config.log file.

Thanks in advance for your help !
Best Regards,
JM
