I chose my solution in preference to changing the Makefile basically because the man-page shipped with the tarball, tc-bfifo.8, still has 'pbfifo 8' in it's opening text, so i assumed it was a term still supported. Then again, it's also dated January 2002, so perhaps it has been dropped, in which case removing the 2 symlinking instructions from the Makefile (& upstream editing their man-page) would be the way to go. -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/faq/ Unsubscribe: See the above information page
