Yes, those are elinks options. The latest stable release of elinks (0.11.7) installs by default as 'elinks' (DESTDIR install, it's lightweight enough to run from there) and (of course) does not get invoked because PAM is calling for links. If elinks is symlinked as links it DOES create the ADG and SAG HTML docs. For almost any other word, I would use a sed - but links is used in many places in configure and I do not like sed commands with hardcoded line numbers. So, either a patch, or use the switch by default. I think I'll go for using the switch by default, with a note that this fixes building with the book's links, and add to t he deps 'or elinks, installed as links, and remove the configure switch'. ĸen -- `I shall take my mountains', said Lu-Tze. `The climate will be good for them.' -- Small Gods -- http://lists.linuxfromscratch.org/listinfo/blfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
