That has since been fixed in the SVN book by creating entities for the anduin ftp, http and files directories. Hopefully, I also updated all the spots in the book to actually use the entities as well. I vaguely remember grepping the xml files for this, but I suppose I should check again. As far as the 6.1 book being broken pointing to the SVN area, .... oops! :-) Okay, I snipped everything about the hassle to update the md5sums and I'll go on the pretense that we'll keep on doing it. I'll check the existing md5sum file and re-enable the link to it in the Perl Modules page and close the bug. This doesn't address the broken 6.1 book, but it puts SVN back on track. I suppose we need to address the 6.1 issue, but I'm not all that excited about worrying about it. I can't imagine using the BLFS-6.1 book. Or anyone else using it for that matter. It would be so antiquated. <brokenrecord>We need to start updating LFS/BLFS more often. It seems that so quickly, the books are outdated, and new readers would *never* know to use SVN books.</brokenrecord> -- Randy rmlscsi: [bogomips 1003.28] [GNU ld version 2.16.1] [gcc (GCC) 4.0.3] [GNU C Library stable release version 2.3.6] [Linux 2.6.14.3 i686] 19:26:00 up 19 days, 7:03, 2 users, load average: 0.10, 0.16, 0.11 -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
