And even better, a (more-readily-) machine-parseable txt version? Also, the linked-to filenames (e.g. 'chapter32.html') seem to get a bit out-of-sync with the linked-from text (e.g. 'Chapters 33-34 - Xfce Desktop and Applications'), from ca xfce onwards. rgds, akh -- -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page

[blfs-dev] where to put time and pax
Hi, Adding time (as a binary rather than buitin command) and pax is needed according to the FHS. I cannot figure out where to put them: in general utilities, or system utilities?

If someone want to go through and add new tickets for the out of date packages, please do so. It took me all day to wrestle these scripts into shape. The main problem is upstream devs who think it's clever to hide their directory listings of the packages they offer. They spend time making clever html files that are automatically generated but that just makes it quite difficult to extract just what is the latest release. The naming of files is also quite inconsistent. For example, we have junit4_4.11.orig.tar.gz. First why do they need to tell us it's version 4 twice. Second, why do they need to add 'orig'. What else would it be? Binary? If so, then for what architecture? Actually junit is java and you don't have binaries. In any case the scripts are current. If the 'Latest' version is a 0, then it means that either the upstream server is down or someone was clever and changed a file name or web page. There was at least one server down today: 0pointer.de. We have several packages pointing there. I've noticed it being down in the past. It doesn't seem to be very reliable. If you notice something wrong, please let me know, but please also tell me what the correct URL is that I can use to determine the most recent released version of the package. -- Bruce -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
