Hello. I have manually completed two LFS builds before now (on amd64 and
on Raspberry Pi, based on http://intestinate.com/pilfs/), just so you
know I'm not a total noob! :)
I'm trying ALFS for the first time. I'm trying to build LFS (System V)
8.0 because that is the highest version that is described as being
compatible with jhalfs-2.4, according to
http://wiki.linuxfromscratch.org/alfs/wiki/SupportedBooks
The main problem is jhalfs can't download this file because it doesn't
exist:
http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/downloads/8.0/lfs-bootscripts-20150222.tar.bz2
I think this URL is coming from
http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/downloads/8.0/wget-list
which I'm guessing ends up being used to generate my local file
/mnt/build_dir/sources/urls.lst (?)
When I use my browser to look at the directory
http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/downloads/8.0
... I see lfs-bootscripts-20170626.tar.bz2 instead. But when I look in
wget-list in that same directory, it specifies downloading
http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/downloads/8.0/lfs-bootscripts-20150222.tar.bz2.
So I'm thinking that is a bug, but I'm not sure how to correct this
problem in the jhalfs-2.4 build process.
What should I do? Is there some way to hack the build process to use the
20170626 version of the file, or do I need to find the 20150222 version
from somewhere else?
Incidentally, the following URL is giving me a 500 Internal Server
Error. (Maybe a temporary outage?)
http://www.multiprecision.org/mpc/download/mpc-1.0.3.tar.gz
I found the following instead, and it hashes to the same md5 checksum:
https://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/mpc/mpc-1.0.3.tar.gz
I just threw that in my $SRC_ARCHIVE, so I'm not worried about this one
so much. Just thought the maintainers would want to know.
Thanks in advance for any help. LFS is an awesome educational resource!
You can just download everything manually.
