Randy, due to an oversight I also committed the change to BOOK/gnome/core/gnome-vfs.xml. I had to change it locally since my sandbox would not validate without it. Hopefully since I only changed fam to gamin in that file, it should not cause you a big problem. -- Tushar Teredesai mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/~tushar/ -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page

Yeah, I can understand the validation thing. Don't worry about it. Thanks for updating to Gamin. I'm not getting much done anyway. I'm watching the Tulane Green Wave play football on TV.

Will wait for the final confirmation from Bruce before putting it into the book. How do we handle the dependencies? The options are: 1. Replace all dependencies on FAM by Gamin. I plan to include a link to FAM's homepage on the gamin page. 2. Cast the dependencies as Gamin or FAM with the FAM link pointing to FAM's homepage. -- Tushar Teredesai mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/~tushar/ -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page

Randy McMurchy wrote: Hi all, Has there been a decision reached on what to do with the FAM/Gamin proposal of Tushar? I'm all in favor of removing FAM and adding Gamin. It seems to work as expected with both GNOME and KDE, and I've not noticed any ill behavior. Theoretically, ill behavior is possible with the following scenario: host c1 mounts c2:/some/dir via nfs If both hosts run FAM, c1's FAM sometimes wants to contact c2's FAM via c2's portmap. If c2 in fact uses gamin, this fails, and c1 resorts to polling.

Lets go ahead and use Gamin, but just comment out the reference in general/genlib/genlib.xml and don't delete the fam.xml file from svn yet. This will make it a bit easier to revert to fam if we need to. -- Bruce -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page

Tushar, I could not tell from your previous message if you wanted me to go ahead and add Gamin to the book, or if you are going to do it. If you are, what is the time frame you are looking at? Sorry to be a pest about this, but as I mentioned, I'd like to update GNOME and the FAM/Gamin thing kind of stalls me.
