Install NIS and RPC related headers that are not installed by default; these are required by several BLFS packages: cp -v ../glibc-2.16.0/sunrpc/rpc/*.h /usr/include/rpc cp -v ../glibc-2.16.0/sunrpc/rpcsvc/*.h /usr/include/rpcsvc cp -v ../glibc-2.16.0/nis/rpcsvc/*.h /usr/include/rpcsvc Sure, we've only started this discussion because you didn't do that, and some of the results have been interesting, but we _expect_ those headers to get installed (like they were in past versions of glibc). Do we need to use stronger language, or perhaps avoid the explanation so that people who think "I don't care about XXX in BLFS" will not omit them ? I'm curious. ĸen -- das eine Mal als Tragödie, das andere Mal als Farce -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/faq/ Unsubscribe: See the above information page
