The discussions that you, Tim and I are having really look more like that than developing a specific structure for others to use. I know that some of the things on the wiki right now are "user notes," with definite recommendations for switches and honing the installation of a particular package. Other than the hint as it currently exists, I don't think we have anything similar to what I just described. Maybe we do, but this is beyond my expertise.
I've been watching the various posts today and was waiting until tomorrow to write anything of my own. Domestic project. :) I think that you, Tim and I, at least, need to have a plan, put something useable in place and then fine tune it. If I'm not mistaken, that's the function of trac. I'll give you a good example. There's Tim's concept of making install directories by using the script. He's used it "ad hoc," as he says, and I've never used it. Right now I'm about 25% through my manual rebuild of Ch. 5, and I won't be able to test the concept until I get to Ch. 6. Soooooo, on the topic of automated install directories, we don't have anything but ideas to offer yet. I don't think that trac authorization is something that we need "right now." I also think that when we're ready, Bruce may still be amenable to letting us use it. In the meantime, let's just keep up the exchange about what we're doing. At the risk of sounding insulting, and I sure don't mean to be, you still, as yet, must complete a successful LFS build using the package users system. Your notes will be invaluable. Whaddaya think?
