What I found was that I had to chown lfs:lfs the folders... also, you may need to re-check the chmod steps in the environment setup to make sure that directories are set as sticky, and that the LFS user has the correct permissions relative to the folders you are trying to delete. You don't have to chown the directories if you followed the book's directions in the first place. You need to do all of chapter 5 as the lfs user as instructed in the book. Of course if you've already gotten this far then it should probably be enough just to go ahead, chown the contents of $LFS/tools to the lfs user, and continue as the lfs user. Do not do any part of chapter 5 as anything other than the lfs user and (assuming $LFS/tools and $LFS/sources have the right ownership and permissions and the lfs user has the correct environment) everything will work fine. -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page The reason I ran into this was because I had unpacked several packages as root, so lfs didn't have permissions to those folders. -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
