Well, we only have xmms in BLFS and it is out of date. They just released a new xmms last week (after four years). I was curious and looked at the xmms source for both 1.2.10 and 1.2.11, but a grep couldn't find a use of abs() times a negative constant in either. I do think we need to put a patch and an errata comment out on LFS 6.3 though. -- Bruce -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/faq/ Unsubscribe: See the above information page
