Please apply the patch, and, in the case if it is unsuitable as a whole,
please don't revert parts that are actually OK.
I thought it was almost 100% choice of folks that responded to use
DB instead of the GDBM database. I realize

OK, I will build LFS and update the patch tomorrow. Comments on other
parts of the patch are still welcome.
Should I use DB-4.3.29 or 4.4.16?
I used 4.4.16 in my most recent build. I did not update BLFS to this
version. There

The question is how the book should handle this. Valid options:

Don't add anything to the locale related issues page because the issue

I'll actually look at the bison source a bit to confirm this, but I'm

forgive me posting to this list but I use gmane and there isn't a group

Sure. I also have some ideas (mainly about adding some rules for

Because, as I understand it (which I don't very well myself) 2.6.15 is
the first kernel that can actually handle hardware hotplugging with udev
