login.defs in 10.44 Shadow-4.0.13

2005-10-25 Thread Duncan Webb
etc/login.defs.linux seems to have been renamed to etc/login.defs, therefore the build for Shadow-4.0.13 fails on the sed command that generates /etc/login.defs in chapter 10.44. Shadow-4.0.13. This is a change between 12 and 13 should be: sed -e'[EMAIL PROTECTED]@MD5_CRYPT_ENAB yes@' \ -e

Attemping multilib Cross LFS from Mac OS X

Hey Guys, Throwing this out there in case anyone has any ideas. I'm following the current Cross LFS instructions (generally) to attempt to build multilib on a PowerPC G5 running Mac OS X. (I added a patch for ppc multilib just now to the patches repo for that.) I can get up to the glibc-header
