Tushar, what is the harm in bootstrapping?
What's the point? You guys have always said that BLFS *expects* a
certain base of LFS. In fact you've got gcc4 patches now all over the
place in BLFS SVN because you *expect* that the user will have a

Ah, but it is. I know several people that use BLFS to supplement a more
conventional distro like Fedora or SuSE. I've used it myself on some of
those distros.

build on a P-4 or Athlon and above

I saw your commit. Do the versions of the other toolchain packages
need to be mentioned as well? Doesn't the version of Glibc and Binutils
factor into how GCC compiles also?
Additionally, the SBU time is way skewed now.

Hi all,
For folks that have built (and are using) GNOME-2.12.0, do you
experience any problems with Yelp? I'm noticing issues with it
crashing.
Of course, I tried to get cute when I compiled the package and use
