Hi, I am build the LFS 7.4 following the book, and find two suspected bugs:
(1) In Preface, "vii. Host System Requirements", the version of tar is required 1.18, but this version does not support xz format at all.As such, the following command will fail: tar Jxvf foo.tar.xz Although using xz first then tar will work, I think it is recomended to upgrade tar to support new options. (2) In chapter 5, "5.7. Glibc-2.18" I got the following warning: configure: WARNING: *** These auxiliary programs are missing or incompatible versions: autoconf *** some features will be disabled. *** Check the INSTALL file for required versions. I seems that there should be some requirements of autoconf. -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
