At risk of taking this even further off-topic ... Have any of the LFS developers looked at musl? http://www.musl-libc.org/intro.html This is a completely new libc implementation (it doesn't borrow any glibc code like uClibc does) for Linux aimed at having a very small footprint. It completely supports BusyBox. The project's "How to Use" page actually specifically mentions LFS, but fails to go farther into detail on using LFS. Sabotage is a musl-based distro described as being "based on LFS", though it appears to feature a full-blown package management system now: https://github.com/rofl0r/sabotage It's also apparently possible to use glibc's C++ library alongside it. (Emphasis on "possible".) I'll shut up now and let you guys get back on-topic. :-) ~ William Tracy -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/faq/ Unsubscribe: See the above information page
