Of course if you have a package manager that has build-time
dependencies, the package manager should be installed later in the

Most of the discussions on PM in LFS tend to end with using DESTDIR

I take the first sentence back. I don't remember my glibc-2.2 ->
glibc-2.3 upgrade (
ion.
In the scenario you mentioned, though the vendor says glibc-2.3.4 it
is in reality glibc-2.3.4 + patches from glibc cvs + vendor specific
patches. So installing a prisitine glibc-2.3.4 is probably a downgrade
rather than an upgrade :)

Personally, I have two functions compilePkg and installPkg, each of
them independent of each other. If I need a var that needs to be
shared between the two, I set it globally.

The reasons that patches are not rediffed is so that someone who has
downloaded the previous previous patch knows by looking at the Initial
Package Version field that the patch has not changed.
