Thanks, Ken, for updating the BDB package. However, there are still
some references of "DB": the title in section 6.27.1, the first
sentence of that same section, and the title in section 6.27.2.
Thanks for spotting those, I'll go back and dig around.
Additionally, the following items:
1) disk space used should be 94 MB used.
Disagree. 77.9 MiB on my first build, so yes, more than it says, but I
can't get near 94 (my understanding is that we use MB as an abbreviation
for MiB, I have 79804 KiB as the raw figure).
2) 1.2 is more accurate for the SBU measure.
Agreed (112/96 seconds on this box).
3) it says "fix the permissions" in the text for the chown commands.
However, it might be better as "fix the ownerships".
Yep
4) could you somehow place a note in an appropriate place that there
are BLFS instructions to build BDB as well? Folks might not realize
that they need to install other dependencies if they want to build
the RPC server or additional language bindings that they may be
used to. There will be no more references in BLFS of BDB as a
dependency, therefore, a note in LFS is the only way that they
might remember to build the functionality they are used to.
Here is an example of such a note:
There are instructions to build this package in the BLFS book if you
need to build the RPC server or additional language bindings. The
additional language bindings will require additional packages to be
installed. The BLFS instructions are located at [place URL here].
Will do, I've got some other things to commit first.
Ken
