Hello, This is a report on my experience with LFS 6.2-pre1 so far.
Arch is i386 (pentium3, 800MHz). I built it with jhalfs, which went well except for an initial glitch almost certainly caused by me. Host is an LFS system built from SVN as of last november, slightly suspicious because of said problems with jhalfs. Ch. 6 tests ran without any problems. Only unexpected failures with gcc were the usual libmudflap ones. I got the common annex.c Error 1 with glibc. The system boots and I have installed the following blfs packages: Python-2.4.3 X-6.9.0 atk-1.11.4 cairo-1.0.4 ctags-5.6 dhcp-3.0.4 expat-2.0.0 firefox-1.5.0.4 fontconfig-2.3.2 freetype-2.1.10 getmail-4.4.4 gkrellm-2.2.9 glib-2.10.3 gtk+-2.8.18 jpegsrc.v6b libIDL-0.8.6 libpng-1.2.8 libxml2-2.6.22 mutt-1.5.11 openssl-0.9.8b pango-1.12.3 pkg-config-0.20 postfix-2.2.3 procmail-3.22 screen-4.0.2 tcl-8.4.13 tiff-3.8.2 tk-8.4.13 vim-7.0 vte-0.12.0 wget-1.10.2 which xchat-2.6.6 xfce-4.3.90.2 zip-2.31 Everything seems to work. I have yet to test my scanner and printer, but I'm unlikely to have a chance to set them up before the weekend. -- Miguel Bazdresch http://thewizardstower.org/ -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/faq/ Unsubscribe: See the above information page
