So, start the ball rolling. As a totally neutral party to this discussion, with absolutely no preference whatsoever in the eventual outcome, I am volunteering a suggestion. Why doesn't somebody diff the LFS and CLFS tarballs and list the differences, one-by-one. Sure this may be tedious, but if it were done, then we could discuss each line-item on its own individual merit. Seems to me this is the only way something productive is going to come out of this discussion. I would volunteer to diff the LFS/CLFS rules, but I'm not sure I'm even qualified to do that. I'll be honest to say I am going with whatever the book says to do, as I don't have enough expertise in this area to even comment on what would be good or bad. I just know that after building a current system, everything "just works". So we can't be that far off from having something that both teams can agree on. -- Randy rmlinux: [bogomips 3995.17] [GNU ld version 2.16.1] [gcc (GCC) 4.0.3] [GNU C Library stable release version 2.3.6] [Linux 2.6.16.14 i686] 19:52:00 up 2 days, 10:02, 8 users, load average: 0.00, 0.01, 0.06 -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/faq/ Unsubscribe: See the above information page
