>From the LFS Book: Groff expects the environment variable PAGE to contain the default paper size. For users in the United States, PAGE=letter is appropriate. Elsewhere, PAGE=A4 may be more suitable. While the default paper size is configured during compilation, it can be overridden later by echoing either “A4” or “letter” to the /etc/papersize file
That means that you have to set the variable PAGE. The book do that and configure the source with the command: PAGE=<paper_size> ./configure --prefix=/usr The book expect you to replace <paper_size> with letter or A4 :-) -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
