Has a ticket been submitted? Most issues I see are worked on very quickly.
As for the second point, it is true that CLFS, with the many arches and 32/64/multilib and keeping with XML is more complex, but the team is very open to comments and feedback. If there was a better method to code they would be gladly heard. This topic though is about LFS, not CLFS XML. Even if LFS must re-invent the wheel, surely contacting those who have already invented it would be of some benefit? Even just emailing the list, or one of the developers, or being in IRC pinging us with questions, would involve help unite efforts and save valuable time. -- Justin R.
