Hello. This is follow up about sddm+lxqt contribution and comment about the blfs-basic thread reading suggested by Ken.
1) Seems I proposed myself to take care of page about lxqt and sddm (chapter 26). The best way for me to handle it, is to have access to commit within a specific git branch where modifications would be merged by editor. There is (of course) a gentlemen agreement to modify only pages under "contributor watch". Git tree should include a Makefile of some kind to allow a locale deployment (xml->html) allowing contributor to check locally modifications rendering (as it should appear on LFS web site). When satisfied contributor push Branch and editor will merge (or not) contribution at its own leisure. 2) Noticed question about security patch burden, it is my say "this is a false problem". LFS and BLFS are learning tools, they are not intended to build a production system. so once (lets say) 8.2 was release (in book edition term), that's it, that's all. LFS|BLFS message is, "follow and understand book directives and you will have a working system Linux system, with the experience acquired you should be able track security issue or simple upgrade release for components which matter to you". The purpose of next release (lets say 8.3) is to make sure all selected most recent components are indeed working together with reproducible results. LFS/BLFS release are picture of a working Linux at a given time. 3) About the SBU "estimated build time" I do not believe this is a contributor responsibility (hardware and compilation context are too variable). I think the best way is to have SBU collected from an all out generic verification build and injected directly within the proper XML page/chapter. :-} where I need to go to clone... -- A bientôt =========================================================== Jean-Marc Pigeon E-Mail: j...@safe.ca SAFE Inc.
