Are you really so short of space that it matters ? Most people have enough space not to care - build chapter 6 and then get rid of /tools (or, for the cautious, rename it or just make sure it isn't on $PATH and then test everything). Your analysis sounds correct, but I've not built 6.5 so I can't say for certain. In general, the contents of /tools don't matter providing it's good enough to build chapter 6. So, you may find directory names such as /tools/libexec even though for the final system and in BLFS we take steps to prevent /usr/libexec being used. Carry on and build the final system! ĸen -- After tragedy, and farce, "OMG poneys!" -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/faq/ Unsubscribe: See the above information page
