Re: [lfs-support] LFS 7.1 - 6.9. Glibc-2.14.1
Yes, I think. If you look at some lines after the command, last known test failure is: Other tests known to fail on some architectures are posix/bug-regex32, misc/tst-writev, elf/check-textrel, nptl/tst-getpid2, and stdio-common/bug22. But I'm not sure about posix/annexc.out, so please wait for more info from others. Sincerely, Yasser.

Re: [lfs-support] LFS 7.1 - 6.9. Glibc-2.14.1
Sorry, I took a more careful look at book and saw: You will probably see an expected (ignored) failure in the posix/annexc test. So you can continue to LFS with no any worry about this errors :) Good Luck!

Re: [lfs-support] Shoul I remember (keep in mind) all steps?!
You're right Simon, Unicodes are two fold. And also I don't know if 'sed' can
edit a binary stream :?
However, in computer academic world, streams are bytes even if they are not
letters e.g. 0x00 and I'm not sure why it's named 'stream editor' instead of
e.g. 'tsed'(text stream editor).
Actually, that expression which I mentioned is a bit complicated for who see
'sed' for first time; however, your one is almost completely unknown for me at
this time :S but now, I know enugh about 'sed' to continue with LFS ;)

Thanks a lot Simon,
As I cited, the book is well described enough but I worried a bit when
I saw a 'sed' script at first time. However, as the mailing list's
friends advised, after learning a bit online, now I don't have any
trouble with 'sed' expressions at book :)
Here, I would like to write down what I learned just in few lines for
helping whom reach this thread via searching the mailing list:
1. sed stands for 'stream editor'
2. Streams are bytes which are traveling e.g. byte[] is an array
but when you send it's items one by one to a destination then
it's a stream.
Better to say characters, than bytes. They *are* bytes, of course, but
as a tool for dealing with text, sed views the stream as a stream of
characters. And a character isn't always a single byte.
1. Exampl 2: echo 'Welcome to LFS' | sed 's@[A-Z]@*@g'
1. A bit more complicated, right? but not at all
when I describe it:
Oh, that's not complicated at all. Somewhat offtopic for LFS, but try
this one, used in a script I wrote for work... basically it parses and
reformats the output of our version control tools...
sed -n '
/version .*/h;
/activity:.*@/{
H; g
s/.*version \(.*\).*activity:\(.*\)@\/vobs.*/\2 - \1/
p
}'
Simon.

[lfs-support] mounting via .bashrc as root (2 suggestions)
Hi there, I have two suggestions for the book which I hope will be helpful: As in every computer boot up and logging in as lfs user I had to run 'mount /dev/sda7 /mnt/lfs' as root, I added (rewrited) this to .bashrc file as following (rewriting LFS-7.1 4.4. Setting Up the Environment section): cat ~/.bashrc EOF set +h umask 022 LFS=/mnt/lfs LC_ALL=POSIX LFS_TGT=$(uname -m)-lfs-linux-gnu PATH=/tools/bin:/bin:/usr/bin export LFS LC_ALL LFS_TGT PATH mount /dev/sda7 $LFS EOF However I have two issues with this: I know I should use 'sudo mount' in Debian but what command will work in all distros? because book's reader can be on any distro.The mount command should not run if it's already mounted. how it can be verified before mounting, via Linux commands? Another suggestion is doing LFS-7.1 4.4 steps for root too in beginning of part III because after this part, all commands should be run as root but $LFS is not declared in root. so I issued following command while I was logged in as root and now I don't have to declare $LFS every time I login to root: NOTE: I commented that lines which I was not sure about them if they should run in root mode too. cat ~/.bashrc EOF # set +h # umask 022 LFS=/mnt/lfs # LC_ALL=POSIX # LFS_TGT=$(uname -m)-lfs-linux-gnu # PATH=/tools/bin:/bin:/usr/bin export LFS # LC_ALL LFS_TGT PATH mount /dev/sda7 $LFS EOF What's your idea? Are these useful and meaningful? Thanks in advance!

Re: [lfs-support] mounting via .bashrc as root (2 suggestions)
I just tried to automating mounting while loggin in without any extra typing; However, I'll use your advise instead, thanks! What about second idea? i.e. defining .bashrc for user root like lfs user to export $LFS variable. The book does not talk about repeating the steps, it may consider we will learn this from previous sections. Thanks!

[lfs-support] wget-list update
I noticed that the wget-list file has outdated links for man-pages and zlib. For some reason, man7.org doesn't seem to host downloads anymore at all, and zlib got an update from the version in the book. Huzzah for google, at least. http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/docs/man-pages/man-pages-3.35.tar.gz http://sourceforge.net/projects/libpng/files/zlib/1.2.6/zlib-1.2.6.tar.bz2/download I don't know how to specify a mirror from Sourceforge, but I would think that would redirect properly.
