Bug in Multi-Arch Chapter 5 glibc

2005-08-03 Thread Michael Kipper
Small bug, which seems to have been fixed in the main branch. In building glibc 2.3.5, --disable-selinux seems to be depricated, and does nothing. No warnings, but #define HAVE_SELINUX 1 still shows up in config.h Like in the stable branch, --without-selinux is the correct parameter. -mk -- htt

Suggestion for Vim instructions

2005-08-03 Thread Randy McMurchy
Hi all, Just a suggestion for the Vim instructions. Discuss, disregard or whatever! A symlink from /usr/share/doc to the docs stashed away in /usr/share/vim/vim63/doc would be nice. I like it when the docs are located in a spot where you can find them. :-) ln -v -s ../vim/vim63/doc /usr/share/do

libcurses.so -> libncurses.so symlink and ldconfig

2005-08-03 Thread Alexander E. Patrakov
Hello, The LFS-6.1 book creates the /usr/lib/libcurses.so -> libncurses.so symlink during ncurses installation. A possible problem is that ldconfig also looks at that symlink. So after running the following commands as root: cd /usr/lib ; /sbin/ldconfig ; ls -l lib{n,}curses* the result is s
