The different distro don't define only with their PM.
most of the PM`s converted from one distro to another, therefore there

First, thanks again for your interest and words.
I'm quickly cutting to the chase now:

All I did was to simply delete it ('lpadmin -x ') and then run the
_exact_ command I once used to install it (I keep records :-). Absolutely no

My two cents.
I'm on my second installation of lfs/blfs, and this time my goal was
to expand on what I had learned before and make the system more

I forgot to mention that 2.16 will require updated versions of at
least Glib and GTK+. Perhaps other packages as

You will come across snags in dependencies, and missing packages
(2.16 has dropped some and added new packages).
Hello,
I was wondering if anyone is using gnome 2.16 as
http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/view/svn/ refers to 2.14.
I was intending to try to build gnome 2.16 just following the above
instructions for 2.14 and hoping not to come across any snags.

Wasn't my intention to stand for this PMS like an Ubuntu user does for
it's distro (and it was funny to read). I was only replying to your points

I really don't understand you.
It's Linux From Scratch - Your distro, Your rules.
It is the best freedom that have.
You are no better than all the Ubuntu users who think their distro is
the only one and interrupt to any discussion which someone
accidentally think to use in other distro.

What about cfdisk?
AFAIK no danger just in looking at partition table, just beware of
