> Looks fine to me. OK, I'm done for now. What I found is that we have 758 packages in BLFS, counting the Xorg libs, apps, etc. Of those, we have 164 that indicate a difference between the latest from upstream and what is in the book. Tomorrow I'm going to work on the needed updates to LFS, but then I'll start updating the BLFS packages. I'll create a summary for a group of packages that I'll be working to let others know what packages I intend to do next. I do see that some of the scripts put out incorrect values -- blfs-bootscripts (need to run the script after the book updates on the server) and libcap2 (now fixed) are two I just noticed. -- Bruce -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
