If you want, you can install the package manager as a package controlled by the package manager. Since the package manager in the package user's approach does not have any build dependencies (only run-time dependencies) it can be the first package to be installed in chroot. I do that in my installation. Of course if you have a package manager that has build-time dependencies, the package manager should be installed later in the process. -- Tushar Teredesai mailto:tus...@linuxfromscratch.org http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/~tushar/ -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
