Ah, thanks for that. My previous attempt with 5.14.0 made the same changes to 1 & 3, but didn't change 2 which is why it obviously failed for me. I don't see any problems with the proposed instructions; I assume you did a full chapter 6 test suite run to verify it? I think it's Glibc & Coreutils that are particularly picky about the Perl installation, if I recall correctly. Thanks, Matt. -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/faq/ Unsubscribe: See the above information page
