However, what I've seen recently (last several months) is that LFS Development almost always moves fairly quickly with updated packages. The kernel (due to lack of sanitized headers) notwithstanding. As far as the BDB API, they (Sleepycat) are *very* good about putting up a page with all the changes, and documenting every detail of the API changes so that you can readily fix any breakage, with fairly little skill level. -- Randy rmlscsi: [GNU ld version 2.15.94.0.2 20041220] [gcc (GCC) 3.4.3] [GNU C Library stable release version 2.3.4] [Linux 2.6.10 i686] 13:55:00 up 93 days, 23:19, 3 users, load average: 0.10, 0.03, 0.05 -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/faq/ Unsubscribe: See the above information page
