Sounds a good idea. My cable hardware upgrade went ok, so I'm back online and I'll pick this up - one section at a time. Not sure if I'll move them all to aplhabetical order, maybe only dbus-glib ;) Actually, it depends how erratic their current order is. For gnome (3.2) I've still go a lot of analysis to do on which deps are implicitly pulled in by others, so I'll just do hte glib2 -> pkgconfig for them. ĸen -- das eine Mal als Tragödie, das andere Mal als Farce -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
