The wrapper scripts are doing the same thing you have in DIY. I don't know why you would call it bogus without testing? I did test out those changes during my last build around the same time I proposed them. I found the wrapper scripts useful when I was trying out different things with the toolchain to see how they the compiler and linker interact/affect with each other when some flags are changed. Also it allowed me to keep the /tools untouched in chroot phase. It also saved rebuilding ld with a LIB_PATH of /usr/lib:/lib. All win-win IMO. Though, I had assumed that the editors would have tested it out before putting it in the book. But as Jermey said, he thought all that had already been done. -- Tushar Teredesai mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/~tushar/ -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/faq/ Unsubscribe: See the above information page
