If that will meant that Cross-LFS will be focused on pure cross-build
techniques and scenarios, i.e. it assumes that host-triplet !=
target-triplet, thus no chroot way to build the final system, focusing the
normal LFS book on host-triplet = target-triplet builds (not only for x86,
but also for other archs, primarily x86_64) using the chroot way, then I
support the proposal.
Hmm, I didn't see that in the proposal. From my POV, if Cross-LFS is
restricted to host != target the number of likely users will be cut
dramatically. More to the point, I've seen no sign of willingness to
(re-)admit other architectures to the normal LFS book (it used to have a
ppc version, but that was before my time).
I'll clarify my earlier posting - I want to run on x86_64 (ideally with
lib and lib32, but I haven't started looking at that yet) and ppc at the
moment, my interest in i686 is not great (it builds, it runs, it's a
boring architecture). Until Jim posted, the only game in town offering
that was Cross-LFS.
