Trying to build Grub-2.12 on Slackware-Current

[Charles Broam]

To Help-Grub Helpers:

I'm on Slackware-Current (64 bit). And Grub only goes to 2.06 for
Slackware-Current. There is a Grub Slackbuild for 2.06, which I'm trying to
make work for Grub-2.12. But I don't know which patches to remove, and I'm
still getting errors.

That is a snippet from the last build attempt. Is there a log file, and if
so where is this logfile? What is the name of the logfile? I want clearer
error messages of what went wrong.

Thanks for your help.

Sincerely,
