Can't compile core utils on my machine

[asn10038]

Hey @cxu2 If you get a chance double check if you can compile core utils on bank.
I failed during making coreutils with the following errors:

  CC       lib/allocator.o
lib/acl-internal.c: In function 'free_permission_context':
lib/acl-internal.c:479:1: error: function might be candidate for attribute 'const' [-Werror=suggest-attribute=const]

working on it.

Looks like I cannot reproduce the error you had since I am stuck on a step before due to not having these dependencies installed:

• autopoint
• bison
• gperf
• texinfo
  I can try after those are installed to bank.

As mentioned in https://bug-coreutils.gnu.narkive.com/q14Ima4F/bug-32762-bug-at-coreutils-compile, it is not a bug per-se and it happens only when compiled from github repo, not from tarballs. Do ./configure --disable-gcc-warnings will resolve the issue.
I have updated the Makefile to include this option.
