George - I have what I hope isn't a dumb question about jhalfs, which probably relies on some knowledge of the HLFS svn repository (which I don't have).
The current published version of HLFS is svn-20060510. This is what is rendered online, etc. However, jhalfs pulls the development sources from svn, at least by default. I know how to point jhalfs at a different book, if I had already checked it out, but I haven't. It turns out that the development sources have been updated recently (at the least, coreutils was upgraded 6/29, it looks like changes are continuing), and jhalfs doesn't appear to be able to build it from scratch (coretils patches for 5.97 from http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/patches/downloads/coreutils don't match the md5 checksum, etc). I poked around with svn and didn't see any tags in the HLFS tree that corresponded with svn-20060510, so I don't see a way (which doesn't mean that there isn't one) to check out that version of the book. So: is there a way to point jhalfs at such a version from the repository, or can you tell me the path in the repository to books other than the current?
