I'm not an hlfs editor, so I can't speak on their behalf. There haven't
been any releases, only svn renderings, so I was talking about svn
renderings. The hlfs book seems to be slower to update than lfs
development (with reason), and if it will reference a blfs-bootscripts
package with a date, it would be IMO nice if it was in /hlfs/downloads.
Just my opinion though, so that the book doesn't have dead links and
no-applying patches like now.
What I'm driving at is that I don't remember any discussion or
otherwise saying that this particular version of the
BLFS-Bootscripts was going to be used in a release. How was it
even determined that this particular version of the bootscripts
was stable?
WRT hlfs, no idea. They use the latest svn blfs-bootscripts probably.
For trunk LiveCD we use the current blfs svn version (since our scripts
download from (B)LFS mirrors) to go along with the blfs svn packages we
use. For LiveCD releases, we freeze the version (or course reading the
changelog and monitoring future releases for anything we should be aware
of) and beta test it. If you have other suggestions for how we
determine versions for LiveCD, please suggest it on the livecd list.
Thanks.
