The current blfs-svn is still targetted at LFS-6.2, at least until BLFS-6.2 is tagged.
Without looking back at the cmails you refer to, I think you may be doing Dan an injustice - taking a patch from fedora is almost certainly a correct way to deal with blfs problems caused by using the kernel's own sanitised headers, because it was the fedora kernel headers maintainer who did the work to get sanitised headers into the kernel, and fedora used them to rebuild all their packages. Probably best to open a ticket for this in blfs trac, so that it doesn't get forgotten when blfs-svn starts to move forward. ĸen -- das eine Mal als Tragödie, das andere Mal als Farce -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
