I'm inclined to think that putting a package-freeze in place now (in the next day or so), then following with the pre-1 release for about 10 days of testing, followed with the BLFS-6.1 release. Then, we can update all those packages (some of which may have API updates that affect others, especially the multimedia stuff) and later release BLFS-6.1.1 (a minor version release). In my opinion, the book is stable now, and could be released as is (just a couple of package updates first). Adding almost 50 package updates right before a *major* release is just asking for trouble. -- Randy rmlscsi: [GNU ld version 2.15.94.0.2 20041220] [gcc (GCC) 3.4.3] [GNU C Library stable release version 2.3.4] [Linux 2.6.10 i686] 16:38:00 up 113 days, 16:11, 2 users, load average: 0.00, 0.00, 0.00 -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
