On the plus side for doing a release now: when I got back online, perhaps a month ago now (and still no access to my original mail account - excuse me for a moment while I swear at virgin media ... ) there were clearly people using LFS-svn - I remember a bug in firefox's rendering was mentioned, and apparently solved by a patch checked in to either nss or nspr, so it seems to build desktops that are mostly ok. Also, I think we've generally looked for more testing once LFS seems to be ready for a release. On the negative side, I share the disquiet with a .0 gcc release, but I'm not aware of any deal-breaking bugs in it. ĸen -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/faq/ Unsubscribe: See the above information page
