Instead to gunzip all .gz files, would it not better to submit patches that add -n when gzip run so the files in use will really be the same? I should say I have made some patches like that but have not reported because it was against old version and not current version of packages. And how do you handle binary files that include a building timestamp string (like libc and perl)? Normally, those packages always differ because of the time string include. I have made hack patches removing timestamps on libc, perl and a few other packages. But I suspect my hack have no chance to be accepted upstream (maybe except the gzip -n changes). http://ipcop.cvs.sourceforge.net/viewvc/ipcop/ipcop/src/patches/glibc-2.3.3_notimestamp.patch?revision=1.1.2.1&view=markup&pathrev=IPCOP_v1_4_0 http://ipcop.cvs.sourceforge.net/viewvc/ipcop/ipcop/src/patches/perl-5.8.5-notimestamp.patch?view=log&pathrev=IPCOP_v1_4_0 Gilles -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/faq/ Unsubscribe: See the above information page
