Hi all,

I am recommending to temporarily remove Courier from the BLFS book
until after 6.1 is released.

BLFS should not release such an old package (7 revs behind and almost
a year has gone by since BLFS has updated Courier). This is
deplorable.

The reason being is that recent versions have an entirely new build
order. Some of Courier has been moved to other packages and things
simply don't build the way BLFS says they do.

I can only think that it will be a support-nightmare when folks see
that we are 7 revs behind and try to use a more current version.

I think we should simply eliminate this problem by commenting out
Courier from the book for the 6.1 release.

Thoughts from others?
