I don't see what's so bad about /usr/src/linux-[version] . It has treated me well in the past. Or am I failing to understand what jhalfs does with the kernel source.
1. Rogue packages that go looking for /usr/src/linux-$(uname -r) to try to include the kernel headers. 2. The possibility that people will infer "linux source in /usr/src" = "use kernel headers in /usr/src/linux-*". We're so close to having upstream supported sanitized headers, I would hate to prolong this horrible myth in any way. This one is not as big a deal as 1., but I feel it's important for xLFS since one of the goals is education. Like I said in my other response, most of the people that read this post already know this, but I'm thinking more about a build-from-source noob. Just my opinion. I'm not interested in making this some kind of political divide (we have enough of those). -- Dan _______________________________________________ Clfs-dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.cross-lfs.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/clfs-dev
