Yes, thats the link currently shows the "ML-enabled" book. It may be a bit beind the 'real' LFS book because i have to merge trunk from time to time into the ML-branch. Thats currently manual work and i do not believe that automated merge+commit will work stable. I'm really happy and feel honored (hope that its ok since its translated word by word from german "ich fühle mich geehrt") that my - and others! - work is somehow recognized. I assume that your interest in ML does not come out of the blue. It would be interesting to know something about the reason why you are searching for ML stuff. The answer might help to optimize the ML stuff and even more, if you have trouble building the ML system or trouble while using it (e.g. missing core libraries and such). > My apology if this has already been done; but if it has not, may I suggest > that we put a link from somewhere in LFS website to these?

On the way to get my printer driver (32bit from DELL) working, at least nettle has to be built with -m32 ... Regarding pkgmngt, i started a project for my own to see&learn how pkgmngt may work. There is no heavy development on https://www.belfs.org since its a one-man- and spare-time show but it works for me so far and a new rework will come up these days. DJ has published some work on pacman for LFS. You may check https://github.com/djlucas/LFS-systemd-pacman for that. -- Thomas -- http://lists.linuxfromscratch.org/listinfo/lfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/faq/ Unsubscribe: See the above information page
