I will do this, however. As I install most recent packages onto my 6.5 box, if it works, I'll update the page to say so. This will take very little time on top of building the packages. Then, folks will know the recent version works, and when the book is updated, my little note will be removed. I can actually go through the book very fast if I don't have to stop and update each package in the book as I go, which is the way I've always done in the past. I don't think it will take that long to get BLFS in good shape. Actually, thinking about it, I believe there may have been some overreaction to the state of BLFS. It has only been 11 months since the last BLFS release. We've gone much, much longer than this between updates in the past. -- Randy rmlscsi: [bogomips 1003.25] [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] 09:39:00 up 18 days, 22:07, 1 user, load average: 0.00, 0.06, 0.34 -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
