June 7th, 2002 [timothy] - Chapter 06 - Reiserfsprogs: added a description for unpack. June 7th, 2002 [timothy] - Chapter 02 - How to ask for help: mentioned the FAQ. June 6th, 2002 [markh] - Chapter 05 - Tidy up explanations following the /static change. June 5th, 2002 [timothy] Preface - Who would not want to read this book: applied a revised version of Scot's grammar patch.

June 5th, 2002 [timothy] Chapter 06 - LILO: named the hint authors. June 5th, 2002 [timothy] Chapter 06 - Bootscripts: named the hint author. June 5th, 2002 [timothy] Chapter 05 - Gawk: mentioned that the patch will be applied in Chapter 06. The patch caused some confusion. June 3rd, 2002 [timothy] Chapter 01 - FAQ: edited to include reporting typos. May 31st, 2002 [gerard] Chapter 05 - Findutils: Added the CPPFLAGS...re_max_failures fix which is needed on Glibc-2.1 systems. May 30th, 2002 [markh]: Chapter 05 & 06 - Update to binutils-2.12.1. May 30th, 2002 [markh]: Chapter 05 - Bash: Removed section about "last two commands executing anyways" because we no longer have the commands referred to there. May 30th, 2002 [gerard]: Chapter 06 - Glibc: Replaced the various sed fixes with a regular patch. May 30th, 2002 [gerard]: Chapter 06 - Gawk: Replaced the sed fix with a regular patch. May 30th, 2002 [gerard]: Chapter 05 - Fileutils: Replaced the sed fix with a regular patch. May 30th, 2002 [gerard]: Chapter 06 - Ed: Replaced the sed fix with a regular patch. May 28th, 2002 [gerard]: Chapter 06 - Changing ownership: removed the explicit command to chown /lost+found. This is done by the first command now that proc isn't mounted anymore in chapter 5. May 27th, 2002 [gerard]: Upgraded to ncurses-5.2-2.patch (this patch is smaller than the previously used one). May 26th, 2002 [gerard]: Upgraded to: automake-1.6.1, bin86-0.16.3, file-3.38, gawk-3.1.1, gcc-3.1, gettext-0.11.2, modutils-2.4.16, psmisc-21 and util-linux-2.11r. Added gcc-3.1 compile fix patches for ncurses, perl and vim. May 26th, 2002 [gerard]: Chapter 05+06 - Binutils: Removed the tooldir setting from chapter 05-binutils, moved its description to chapter 06-binutils. May 26th, 2002 [gerard]: Chapter 05 - Gawk & Findutils: simplified the installation by removing the libexecdir modifications. We can live with a $LFS/static/libexecdir being created. The whole $LFS/static directory is temporarily anyways, so we're not all that concerned with what it looks like. May 26th, 2002 [gerard]: Chapter 06 - Creating Directories: removed the cd / command and changed the two chmod commands to use absolute paths instead. May 25th, 2002 [markh]: Chapter 06 - Some minor corrections dealing with removing the $LFS variable where it isn't wanted. May 23rd, 2002 [gerard]: Implemented the keep_chap5_and_chap6_sep lfs-hint. Highlights of the change: added findutils and util-linux to chapter 5, installed everything from chapter 5 into $LFS/static and re-ordered the installation of packages in chapter 6 to prevent hard-wiring the wrong path (files from $LFS/static). May 23rd, 2002 [gerard]: Appendix A - E2fsprogs: Added some more descriptions. May 23rd, 2002 [gerard]: Appendix A - Bin86: Added some descriptions.

May 17th, 2002 [markh]: Changed all chown X.X's to chown X:X's which is less likely to run into problems (according to info chown). May 16th, 2002 [gerard]: Chapter 01 - Mirror sites: Added http interface to FTP mirror at idge.net May 16th, 2002 [gerard]: Appendix A - Glibc: Added some more descriptions. May 15th, 2002 [markh]: Chapter 05 - Bzip2. Changed the instructions to deal with hard links in older distros a'la the Chapter 05 gzip instructions. May 11th, 2002 [markh]: Various XML fixups; mainly altering <ulink> tags to remove erroneous &#13; in the HTML output. May 9th, 2002 [gerard]: Appendix A - Glibc: Filled in the missing descriptions. May 6th, 2002 [gerard]: Chapter 06 - Shadow: Fixed the symlink location of vigr to /usr/sbin May 2nd, 2002 [gerard]: Chapter 06 - Procps: Changed the two single quotes to two double quotes (the two single quotes can be mistaken for one double quote which will cause an error). May 2nd, 2002 [gerard]: Changed the cd dir && ln -sf commands to one single command (such as ln -sf bash $LFS/bin/sh Same goes for cd dir && mv/cp constructions which are now replaced with constructions like mv $LFS/usr/bin/{bzcat,bzip2} $LFS/bin May 2nd, 2002 [markh]: Removed the "Removing old NSS library files" section. May 1st, 2002 [gerard]: Removed all Glibc-2.0 workarounds - gzip patch, sh-utils patch, copying of libnss files. Also removed the export VAR=VALUE...unset VAR constructions and changed them to VAR=VALUE ./configure constructions. April 26th, 2002 [marcheerdink]: Chapter 06 Findutils: added libexecdir=/usr/bin to the make command to fix a wrong libexecdir path in updatedb. April 25th, 2002 [gerard]: Chapter 06 Glibc: added a note that if you want to manually install some locales, instead of all of them, then you first need to create the /usr/lib/locale directory. April 21st,2002 [gerard & markh]: Upgraded to MAKEDEV-1.5 April 12th, 2002 [markh]: Added entities/ directory to cvs and split up index.xml. April 10th, 2002 [marcheerdink]: Updated to the following packages: bison-1.35, diffutils-2.8.1, texinfo-4.2, util-linux-2.11q April 9th, 2002 [marcheerdink]: Added --disable-perl-regexp to the grep configure flags to avoid linking against a non-existing static pcre library. April 8th, 2002 [gerard]: Added the http://ftp.de.linuxfromscratch.org mirror (to complement ftp://ftp.de). 3.3 - April 7th, 2002 Updated to: autoconf-2.53 automake-1.6 bin86-0.16.2 binutils-2.12 bison-1.34 bzip2-1.0.2 diffutils-2.8 e2fsprogs-1.27 gawk-3.1.0 gettext-0.11.1 grep-2.5 less-374 lfs-bootscripts-1.9 lilo-22.2 linux-2.4.18 man-pages-1.48 modutils-2.4.15 reiserfsprogs-3.x.1b shadow-4.0.3 texinfo-4.1 util-linux-2.11o vim-6.1 April 7th, 2002 [gerard]: Added a new mirror site located in Freising, Germany April 5th, 2002 [gerard]: Chapter 07 - Loadkeys: Added this page explaining that you can remove the loadkeys symlink from /etc/rc.d/rcsysinit.d if you compiled a keymap directly into the kernel. April 5th, 2002 [gerard]: Chapter 06 - Configuring Keyboard: explained you can also compile the keymap directly into the kernel which has additional benefits. April 5th, 2002 [gerard]: Upgraded to lfs-bootscripts-1.9 April 5th, 2002 [gerard]: Chapter 05+06 - GCC: Added commands to remove the /usr/*-gnu directory. April 4th, 2002 [gerard]: Chapter 05 - Diffutils: Added --disable-nls April 3rd, 2002 [gerard]: Appendix A - Gettext: Added the missing package descriptions. April 3rd, 2002 [gerard]: Chapter 05 - Mounting $LFS/proc: Added chown root.root $LFS/proc. The recursive chown operation in chapter 6 doesn't touch proc, so this'll remain owned by user lfs. It's not a big deal, just not a very clean thing to do. April 3rd, 2002 [gerard]: Chapter 06 - Groff: Added a few symlinks that are used by programs like xman and others. April 3rd, 2002 [gerard]: Chapter 04 - Mounting partitions: Added some notes how to deal with multiple partitions ($LFS, $LFS/usr and so on). April 3rd, 2002 [gerard]: Chapter 06 - E2fsprogs: Added install-info command to finish off the info page installation. April 3rd, 2002 [gerard]: Chapter 06 - Bzip2: Reversed the make and make -f Makefile-libbz2_so. This is needed so all object files are compiled with the PIC option (Position Independent Code). April 3rd, 2002 [gerard]: Chapter 05 - Linux: Shortened the installation instructions by cutting out the make config and make dep stages. April 1st, 2002 [gerard]: This is not a joke: Chapter 5+6 - Gawk: Added a warning to never run make uninstall on the package. It will be pretty much equivalent to rm -rf /usr/bin/* because we override the libexec directory definition to /usr/bin March 29th, 2002 [markh]: Chapter 05 and 06 - Updated to diffutils-2.8, modutils-2.4.15 and vim-6.1. Removed PR_PROGRAM setting for diffutils as /usr/bin/pr is now detected by the configure script. Removed sed to fix problem with shell syntax highlighting in vim as that is fixed in the new version. March 26th, 2002 [markh]: Chapter 02 - Asking for help: Added reference to ESR's smart-questions document. March 25th, 2002 [markh]: Binutils - Added libopcodes library description. March 21st, 2002 [gerard]: Chapter 06 - Bzip2: Before we move /usr/bin/bzless and /usr/bin/bzmore to the /bin directory, we first remove the /bin/bzless and /bin/bzmore files. On some systems overwriting the existing files doesn't work due to hardlinks being used. March 21st, 2002 [gerard]: Appendix A - Sysklogd: Updated the download location to March 20th, 2002 [gerard]: Chapter 06 - Configure Dynamic Loader: Removed the /lib and /usr/lib directories from the ld.so.conf file. They were unnecessary. March 16th, 2002 [gerard]: Chapter 06+Appendix A: Removed the chroot dependencies. It's not a package so it's a bit out of place. March 16th, 2002 [gerard]: Chapter 05+06 - Gawk: Added commands to sed the awklib/Makefile.in file to change the datadir and libexecdir definitions March 15th, 2002 [gerard]: Chapter 01 - Mailing lists: Added lfs-chat description March 15th, 2002 [gerard]: Chapter 06-Shadow: Move libmisc.*a to /usr/lib too. March 14th, 2002 [gerard]: Upgraded to bison-1.34, gettext-0.11.1, grep-2.5, lfs-bootscripts-1.8, shadow-4.0.3 March 11th, 2002 [gerard]: Upgraded to binutils-2.12 March 11th, 2002 [gerard]: Chapter 07 - Setclock: The text here hinted towards the fact that you could skip configuring this step which isn't true unless the entire script would be removed. So the text was changed a bit to just have them create the file no matter how the hardware clock is set up. March 11th, 2002 [gerard]: Chapter 07 - Loadkeys: Removed the need to configure a /etc/sysconfig/keyboard file. The kbd patch makes this obsolete (loadkeys -d is used now). March 11th, 2002 [gerard]: Chapter 05 - Gawk: Added -Dre_max_failures=re_max_failures2 bug fix for glibc-2.1.x systems. March 11th, 2002 [gerard]: Chapter 06 - Bzip2: Before installing, remove /usr/bin/bz*. The bzip2 installation doesn't deal with existing files properly when making hard links, so we remove the files first. March 10th, 2002 [gerard]: Chapter 06 - Configure keyboard: Added section to configure keyboard keymap file by creating the /usr/share/kbd/keymaps/defkeymap.map.gz symlink. March 9th, 2002 [gerard]: Chapter 08 - Make bootable: Added a cp command that finds all the kernel images from /etc/lilo.conf automatically and copies them to $LFS/boot. March 9th, 2002 [gerard]: Chapter 06 - Man: Moved the man.conf from /usr/share/misc to /etc. March 9th, 2002 [gerard]: Chapter 07: Added a page about the sysklogd script and explain that the default script includes the -m 0 option to syslogd. March 8th, 2002 [gerard]: Removed the Mawk package and replaced with the Gawk package. This was done because mawk is no longer being developed, while gawk is. Mawk has some POSIX compliance bugs that are fixed in Gawk. March 8th, 2002 [gerard]: Updated to the following packages: autoconf-2.53, automake-1.6, bin86-0.16.2, bison-1.33, bzip2-1.0.2, e2fsprogs-1.27, gawk-3.1.0, gettext-0.11, less-374, lilo-22.2, linux-2.4.18, man-pages-1.48, modutils-2.4.14, reiserfsprogs-3.x.1b, shadow-4.0.2, texinfo-4.1, util-linux-2.11o 3.2 - March 7th, 2002 Updated to: lfs-bootscripts-1.6 March 1st, 2002 [gerard]: Chapter 05 - Creating directories: Removed the /usr/var and /usr/local/var directories. They aren't recommended by the FHS. February 27th, 2002 [gerard]: Chapter 06 - Make: Added commands to remove the setgid kmem bit from /usr/bin/make. This isn't needed on Linux systems to deal with the system load and it causes some other problems too that are fixed by removing the setgid bit. February 26th, 2002 [gerard]: Upgraded to lfs-bootscripts-1.6 February 17th, 2002 [gerard]: Chapter 05 - Sh-utils: Added the command again that moves $LFS/usr/bin/chroot to $LFS/usr/sbin February 17th, 2002 [gerard] Updated dependencies for all packages. February 15th, 2002 [gerard] Chapter 01: Added a new mirror to the list located in The Netherlands (www.nl and ftp.nl). February 11th, 2002 [markh] Chapter 05: Sh-utils: Removed extra && from end of install instructions. February 10th, 2002 [gerard]: Chapter 05 - Sh-utils: Removed su from the mv command as this isn't installed in chapter 5. 3.2-RC1 - February 10th, 2002 Updated to: bison-1.31 file-3.37 glibc-2.2.5 kbd-1.06-2.patch lfs-bootscripts-1.5 linux-2.4.17 man-pages-1.47 psmisc-20.2 sysvinit-2.84 util-linux-2.11n February 10th, 2002 [gerard]: Chapter 6: Added a sed command to change gzexe's hardcoded /usr/bin/gzip path and change it to /bin/gzip. February 10th, 2002 [gerard]: Chapter 5 + 6: Moved additional programs to the ($LFS)/bin directory that are used by the bootscripts. No programs used by bootscripts (except daemons themselves) should be in the /usr directory in case /usr isn't available until far along in the boot process (when it's an NFS share for example). February 6th, 2002 [markh]: Appendix A - All descriptions now synced and updated. February 2nd, 2002 [gerard]: Chapter 6 - Changing owner: Added cd / so the leading slash can be removed from all the directories in the chown commands. It's more pleasant to type out this way. February 2nd, 2002 [gerard]: Updated to lfs-bootscripts-1.5 February 2nd, 2002 [gerard]: Chapter 6 - Gzip: Removed the compress symlink. Gzip can uncompress .Z files but it can't compress into that format. February 1st, 2002 [gerard]: Updated to lfs-bootscripts-1.3 February 1st, 2002 [gerard]: Chapter 6 - Glibc: Instead of sed'ing the config.make file, create the glibc-build/configparms file containing cross-compiling = no. January 30th, 2002 [marcheerdink]: Chapters 5: Changed the commands to copy the header files to support versions of cp older than 4.1. January 30th, 2002 [markh]: Chapters 5+6: Added CPPFLAGS="$CPPFLAGS -D_GNU_SOURCE" to the configure command for patch. This fixes compilation on PPC and m68k platforms and doesn't hurt on x86. January 30th, 2002 [gerard]: Chapter 5 - Mounting proc: Rephrased the text a bit (it implied you can only mount the proc fs more than once, which isn't true anymore these days). January 30th, 2002 [markh]: Chapter 5: Enhanced the make mrproper explanation. January 30th, 2002 [marcheerdink]: Chapters 5+6: Removed the --libexecdir flag from fileutils' configure options. January 30th, 2002 [marcheerdink]: Chapters 6: Added a symlink from vipw to vigr after installing shadow. January 30th, 2002 [markh]: Chapters 5+6: Changed binutils and e2fsprogs installation instructions to use separate directories ala gcc and glibc. January 30th, 2002 [gerard]: Chapter 6 - Bootscripts: Added a chown root.root after the cp. January 30th, 2002 [gerard]: Appendix A - Texinfo: the info programs works on the /usr/share/info directory not /usr/doc/info. January 30th, 2002 [gerard]: Chapter 6 - Procps: Fixed typo the path to the app-defaults directory (it's /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/app-defaults and not usr/X11R6/lib/app-defaults). January 30th, 2002 [gerard]: Chapter 6 - Configure software: Simplified the commands to create the utmp, btmp, lastlog and wtmp files. January 30th, 2002 [gerard]: Chapter1: Moved Acknowledgements to be displayed as the first page in chapter 1. January 30th, 2002 [gerard]: Chapter 1: Created a separate page to list the HTTP and FTP mirrors. January 30th, 2002 [gerard]: Chapter 4 - Creating partition: increased the suggested partition size from 750 MB to 1 GB. January 29th, 2002 [gerard]: Chapter 6 - Shadow: Combined the mv libshadow.a /usr/lib and mv libshadow.la /usr/lib commands into mv libshadow.*a /usr/lib January 26th, 2002 [gerard]: Upgraded to lfs-bootscripts-1.2 January 26th, 2002 [marcheerdink]: Chapter 6: Removed the datadir option from bisons configure flags, because recent bisons use the correct directory by default. January 23rd, 2002 [markh]: Chapter 6: Added the section Create /etc/mtab symlink. January 23rd, 2002 [gerard]: Removed the file -C command from the file installation. This package runs this command at the very end of the installation so we don't need to do this anymore. January 23rd, 2002 [marcheerdink]: Chapter 4+5+6: The static environment is now built as an unprivileged user, removing the risk of overwriting files of the host distribution. January 22nd, 2002 [markh]: Back out linuxthreads man-page installation instructions as they don't work (they need perl which we don't have installed at that point). January 21st, 2002 [markh]: Updated to glibc-2.2.5. At the same time, fixed the glibc installation so that the linuxthreads man pages are installed. January 21st, 2002 [markh]: Updated to bison-1.31, file-3.37, kernel-2.4.17, psmisc-20.2 and sysvinit-2.84. January 21st, 2002 [markh]: Updated to util-linux-2.11n and removed ADD_RAW=yes as it's no longer needed. January 21st, 2002 [markh]: Updated to man-pages-1.47 and removed the man-pages patch. January 15th, 2002 [gerard]: Appendix A: Added bootscripts files (dependencies, download location, descriptions) January 15th, 2002 [gerard]: Chapter 6: Added bootscripts installation. January 15th, 2002 [gerard]: Chapter 7: Removed most of the scripts, only left the part of a few where we set up config files in /etc/sysconfig. January 15th, 2002 [gerard]: Chapter 6 - Configuring Sysvinit: Changed the inittab contents to match the new bootscripts. January 15th, 2002 [marcheerdink]: Chapter 6 - file: changed the installation instruction so the sed isn't necessary anymore. January 14th, 2002 [marcheerdink]: Changed the kernel header files installation in chapter 5 so it's a bit more portable. January 6th, 2002 [gerard]: Reformatted the dependency lists. January 1st, 2002 [gerard]: Happy New Year LFS! January 1st, 2002 [markh]: First Changelog of New Year! Update copyright notice to cover 2002 ;-) OK - I'm sad... December 16th, 2001 [gerard]: Chapter 6 - Ed: Reworded why ed is optional to eliminate some confusion. December 16th, 2001 [gerard]: Chapter 6 - Texinfo: Reworded the TEXMF explanation to eliminate some confusion. December 15th, 2001 [gerard]: Chapter 4: Replaced the "One partition hint" reference with lfs_next_to_existing_systems.txt hint reference. December 15th, 2001 [markh]: Finish Appendix merge. All of the old appendices A, B and D are now in one (large) Appendix A. December 14th, 2001 [markh]: Merged appendices A and B. December 13th, 2001 [markh]: Appendix B: Changed dbhtml tag so that the flex page is now created as flex.html instead of flex December 13th, 2001 [markh]: Appendix D: Moved metalab.unc.edu and ftp.ibiblio.org references to the proper URL ibiblio.org. December 12th, 2001 [marcheerdink]: Chapter 6: Moved the kbd patch to the default installation instructions; upgraded to kbd-1.06-2.patch to fix installation of some programs; added the descriptions for these programs; removed the loadkeys -d warning that was a leftover from the time where loadkeys -d wasn't fixed yet. December 11th, 2001 [markh]: Chapter 6: Add the "why we cd $LFS before chroot" explanation. December 10th, 2001 [markh]: Chapter 6: Add kbd patch for loadkeys -d behaviour (patch by Matthias Benkmann; originally posted to the lfs-dev list). December 10th, 2001 [markh]: Chapter 6: Re-create symlinks in bash, fileutils and gcc instructions to make the Chapter 6 instructions independent of those in chapter 5. December 10th, 2001 [marcheerdink]: Chapter 5+6: Cleaned up the sed commands to use the backup file that was created earlier instead of writing to an intermediate 'tmp~' file. December 10th, 2001 [marcheerdink]: Chapter 5+6: 'make' command for diffutils installation changed to 'make PR_PROGRAM=/usr/bin/pr.' This bug was reported by Greg Schafer. December 7th, 2001 [gerard]: Chapter 6: Change the configure command from ./Configure -Dprefix=/usr to ./configure.gnu --prefix=/usr. This is more consistent with the installation instructions for the other packages, and the result is identical to the old way. December 3rd, 2001 [markh]: Chapter 2: Added the Which Platform? section. 3.1 - December 3rd, 2001 Added: reiserfsprogs-3.x.0j Updated to: MAKEDEV-1.4 bash-2.05a e2fsprogs-1.25 gettext-0.10.40 libtool-1.4.2 lilo-22.1 linux-2.4.16 man-1.5j man-pages-1.43 modutils-2.4.12 sysvinit-2.83 util-linux-2.11m vim-6.0 November 30th, 2001 [markh]: Chapter 6: Updated to man-1.5j. Removed the sed which we had to use with the old version as the new one detects awk properly. November 30th, 2001 [markh]: Chapter 5: Added static library explanation originally posted on lfs-apps (when it still existed) by Plasmatic. November 26th, 2001 [markh]: Chapter 5+6: Updated to kernel-2.4.16 and modutils-2.4.12. November 26th, 2001 [markh]: Chapter 6: Added FHS compliance notes to the findutils installation. November 19th, 2001 [markh]: Chapter 5+6: Updated to bash-2.05a, lilo-22.1, MAKEDEV-1.4, man-pages-1.43 and util-linux-2.11m. November 5th, 2001 [markh]: Chapter 6: Created new lex script instead of link to flex following comment on lfs-dev. (This is similar to what we do with bison and yacc). October 27th, 2001 [markh]: General: Large XML Tidy-up. Shouldn't affect the book text or layout. If it does, something has gone wrong! October 27th, 2001 [markh]: Chapter 6: Added reiserfsprogs-3.x.0j and updated to lilo-22.0.2. October 24th, 2001 [markh]: General: Fixed a bundle of spelling errors which were reported. October 12th, 2001 [markh]: Chapter 5 - Kernel: Added explanation as to why we copy the kernel headers rather than symlink them. October 12th, 2001 [markh]: Appendix A - Gzip: Added uncompress to the gunzip description as it was missing. October 12th, 2001 [markh]: Chapter 6 - Util-linux: Removed the USRGAMES_DIR=/usr/bin entry as it's no longer needed with util-linux-2.11l. October 9th, 2001 [gerard]: Chapter 6 - Kbd: Removed the --datadir option, kbd's default is set properly already. October 7th, 2001 [gerard]: Chapter 6 - Shadow: Mentioned the lfs-hint October 7th, 2001 [gerard]: Chapter 6 - Vim: Changed the installation instructions to fix a bug in vim-6.0's syntax/sh.vim file, and added the CPPFLAGS variable to specify the global vimrc file as /etc/vimrc October 7th, 2001 [gerard]: Chapter 6: Updated to libtool-1.4.2, lilo-22.0, man-pages-1.40, modutils-2.4.10, sysvinit-2.83, util-linux-2.11l and vim-6.0 October 2nd, 2001 [gerard]: Chapter 9 - The End: Added the reference to the LFS Counter at September 26th, 2001 [gerard]: Chapter 1 - News server: Added reference to the news server September 26th, 2001 [markh]: Chapter 6 - E2fsprogs: Changed --with-root-prefix=/ to --with-root-prefix="" in e2fsprogs install instructions. The reason for the change is that a value of / will cause symlinks and installation paths to use things like //lib instead of just /lib. This isn't bad perse, it just doesn't look nice. September 26th, 2001 [markh]: Chapter 5+6: Updated to e2fsprogs-1.25, gettext-0.10.40, linux-2.4.10, modutils-2.4.9 and util-linux-2.11i. September 22nd, 2001 [markh]: Appendix A: Re-ordered the descriptions into alphabetical order. 3.0 - September 21st, 2001 Updated to: e2fsprogs-1.24 September 21st, 2001 [markh]: Chapter 1+7: Changed the mailing list information to reflect the new ml structure. The Ch7 change is that the rc and rcS scripts now ask people to report problems to lfs-dev instead of lfs-discuss. September 18th, 2001 [gerard]: Chapter 5+6 - GCC: Added --enable-threads=posix to chapter 5, and changed --enable-threads to --enable-threads=posix in chapter 6. Although the default is posix threads when not specified, it's clearer this way what's being enabled. September 17th, 2001 [gerard]: Chapter 6 - Psmisc: Added notes how to deal with psmisc's pidof symlink (in case sysvinit isn't installed) and man page. Also, added --exec-prefix=/ to psmisc's configure script in order for the programs to be installed in /bin rather than /usr/bin (bootscripts may use them, so they must be in /bin). September 16th, 2001 [markh]: Chapter 6 - Util-linux: Added USRGAMES_DIR=/usr/bin to the make install routine so that /usr/games isn't created for banner and it is installed in /usr/bin. September 14th, 2001 [markh]: Chapter 6 - E2fsprogs: Updated to version 1.24. September 11th, 2001 [gerard]: Chapter 6 - Man: Added missing && to 'done' and chmod the configure script to mode 755 instead of 700 (more of a default mode so people don't _have_ to be running as the owner of that file).
