My name is Milton and I'm from the lucky country that is Australia.
Hi nice to meet you. I also go by the nick handle Polyatomic. I started
reading the books in 2010, but only recently started building them. I
only have two rigs and they both run lfs, currently one is awaiting a
hardware update.
I was wondering about the file chapter05/expect.xml in Linux From Scratch
Version 20150628-systemd and was thinking about shortening the two commands
there into one command. I updated the book locally and created a patch.
I was thinking instead of:
cp -v configure{,.orig}
sed 's:/usr/local/bin:/bin:' configure.orig > configure
how about this:
sed -i.orig 's:/usr/local/bin:/bin:' configure
patch here:

This is really just an excuse to introduce myself to the list and say G'day.
I've done that now, I hope I haven't balls up by posting a patch here, I can
see lfs uses trac which I'm not familiar with yet.
Maybe I'll see ya round, take it easy.
