Scripts for BLFS is a good challenge too, since 1) there are a lot more packages (and flavours of build) involved, and 2), it's not all a linear progression like LFS, there's dependencies to worry about. My current approach involves hundreds of small 'spec' files, and an over-complicated Python script that generates a Makefile that performs the actual installations. Needs a bit of work, though, since the current scripts can't really handle parallel versioning very well, which I need for the Gtk+/Gnome 2 -> 3 migration... Simon.
