Heya. I noticed no one replied to this. I saw a git commit about this. It implements same feature that first Dj and then I offered as patch. It does not only install rpc headers, but it also reexports RPC interface so programs can use it as it always did before. I remember the git log said something like "Add option to enable RPC interface untill libtirpc is fully capable to take over." We use libtirpc in BLFS for few packages and it works, but I'll still like to use this one, since libtirpc still requires RPC headers and NIS interface (we provide a patch to remove it). -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/faq/ Unsubscribe: See the above information page
