In Autoconf there are several uses in build-aux/config.guess, but all of those are targeted BSD, Solaris, etc. I'm going to remove it from my working copy of the book and make a test run to see if not having it runs into any problems. I do want to leave it in for 7.1 just because its a minor issue and we don't have enough time to test it thoroughly. -- Bruce -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/faq/ Unsubscribe: See the above information page
