As I go through the pages, I'm confused about the downloading of the
files and where I should be for each step. I think we need more
explicit instructions for this area because it is so complicated.
Something like:
XBUILDROOT=${PWD}
wget -nd -r ftp://anduin.linuxfromscratch.org/sources/BLFS/svn/x/wget/
to retrieve the wget files.
Then make subdirectories
for file in *.wget; do
dir=`echo $file | sed -e 's/.wget//'`
mkdir -p $dir
done
Finally in each section (using proto for an example)
cd $XBUILDROOT/proto
wget wget -i ../proto.wget
for package in *.tar.bz2
do
packagedir=`echo $package | sed 's/.tar.bz2//'`
tar -xf $package &&
cd $packagedir &&
./configure $XORG_CONFIG &&
make install
if [ $? -ne 0 ]; then
break #stop the build if the previous command failed
fi
cd .. &&
rm -rf $packagedir
done 2>&1 | tee -a ../xorg-proto.log #log the entire loop
This is different from the general case because there is no explicit
'make' stage.
We also need some size and time estimates for each section.
