Yes, I've only built pure64 x86_64 LFS for the past few years. The difference in LFS is that it has the /lib64 symlinks so it isn't quite so 'clean'. > and if so can eglibc-2.16 be substituted for glibc-2.16 (for currentl > lfs > development ) ? > Probably - last time I looked, I think one of the eglibc maintainers was also on the glibc team. For x86_64 native builds, I doubt there is very much difference between eglibc and glibc releases. Certainly nfs3/rpcbind works on LFS-7.2 but we did have a period where not everything got installed. No idea if your problems with gssd are related. ĸen -- das eine Mal als Tragödie, das andere Mal als Farce -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
