[6a5de1b] | 1 | These are the TODO items for the next LFS release (3.0):
|
---|
[c9a095c] | 2 |
|
---|
[46b85b6] | 3 | * Chapter 5, bash: add note that when error occurs regarding
|
---|
[77a68e7] | 4 | install-info (on Debian systems for example) it can be safely
|
---|
| 5 | ignored.
|
---|
| 6 |
|
---|
[46b85b6] | 7 | * Chapter 5, bash: when the 'install-info' error corrurs on Debian
|
---|
[77a68e7] | 8 | systems, check if this affects && (the message is Error 2 (ignored)
|
---|
| 9 | but does that mean the return value is set to 0 as well...)
|
---|
| 10 |
|
---|
[46b85b6] | 11 | * Check if findutils dumps binaries in /usr/local/bin
|
---|
[8b70a74] | 12 |
|
---|
[46b85b6] | 13 | * Try out latest shadow suite. If it fails with "nflg undefined" change
|
---|
[f43b17b] | 14 | this in useradd.c : line 1768:
|
---|
| 15 | -if (! (nflg || gflg)) {
|
---|
| 16 | +if (!gflg) {
|
---|
| 17 |
|
---|
[46b85b6] | 18 | * Make a note that during the first reboot an error from sysklogd is
|
---|
[e286188d] | 19 | normal due to missing /etc/services|protocols files which are
|
---|
| 20 | installed when netkit-base is installed later on in chapter 9
|
---|
| 21 |
|
---|
[46b85b6] | 22 | * Chapter 3: mention lfs-packages isn't for CVS
|
---|
[324b295] | 23 |
|
---|
[46b85b6] | 24 | * Fix the static link problems some distro's are causing
|
---|
[44a7fad] | 25 |
|
---|
[46b85b6] | 26 | * Clean out the ethnet script (for interface in $(ls
|
---|
[fe12c25] | 27 | /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg* | grep -v ifcfg-lo)
|
---|
| 28 | do) needs some updating for example)
|
---|
| 29 |
|
---|
[46b85b6] | 30 | * Don't use \u in PS1 when entering chroot to avoid the 'i have no
|
---|
[79b0090] | 31 | name'. After Glibc installation we could modify the PS1 (export
|
---|
| 32 | PS1=newvalues) and test that way if glibc is working properly. This
|
---|
[5ce7896] | 33 | saves us the having to exit and re-enter chroot environtment. Another
|
---|
[79b0090] | 34 | idea is to run 'id' or 'whoami' after Glibc installation and check if
|
---|
| 35 | it's able to find a matching username with root's id.
|
---|
| 36 |
|
---|
[46b85b6] | 37 | * Instead of rm file && ln -s source dest, use ln -sf source dest
|
---|
[f10f45d] | 38 |
|
---|
[46b85b6] | 39 | * e2fsprogs apparently needs ldconfig. Check if there are other
|
---|
[4378e5b] | 40 | packages before e2fsprogs which use ldconfig when it's present
|
---|
| 41 |
|
---|
[46b85b6] | 42 | * Mention more hints through out the books (like BSD hint before
|
---|
[c81e81c] | 43 | staring with chapter 7, devfs hint before running MAKEDEV, etc)
|
---|
| 44 |
|
---|
[46b85b6] | 45 | * Consider ftp://ftp.win.tue.nl/pub/linux-local/utils/kbd/
|
---|
[e939b0f] | 46 | to replace console-tools/console-data
|
---|
| 47 |
|
---|
[46b85b6] | 48 | * Try new procps install:
|
---|
[0cdbaf7] | 49 | make OPT="$CFLAGS" INCDIRS='-I/usr/include -I.' XSCPT='' install
|
---|
[46b85b6] | 50 | * When installing Glibc in chapter 6 the mtrace program isn't
|
---|
[f959601] | 51 | build. Find out why.
|
---|
[f2c2c38] | 52 |
|
---|
[46b85b6] | 53 | * Incorporate LFS FAQ in the book
|
---|
[504a804] | 54 |
|
---|
[46b85b6] | 55 | * Full dependency list. This list isn't a list of "package a depends on
|
---|
[1eafd92] | 56 | package b", but a list of "package a depends on b and c from
|
---|
| 57 | package d"
|
---|
[c9a095c] | 58 |
|
---|
[46b85b6] | 59 | * Bring the book up to speed with the current FHS specs.
|
---|
[c9a095c] | 60 |
|
---|
[46b85b6] | 61 | * Mention security patches that can be applied to packages.
|
---|
[c9a095c] | 62 |
|
---|
[46b85b6] | 63 | * Don't run lilo from inside chroot anymore. This causes severe problems
|
---|
[c9a095c] | 64 | sometimes including LILO not bootstrapping properly.
|
---|
| 65 |
|
---|
[46b85b6] | 66 | * Bring back the PPC book (recreate from scratch using current intel
|
---|
[c9a095c] | 67 | book) using Jesse McCrosky's notes at
|
---|
| 68 | http://download.linuxfromscratch.org/misc/ppc-notes.txt
|
---|
[77290a3] | 69 | and the patch to the 'patch' package at:
|
---|
| 70 | http://download.linuxfromscratch.org/misc/ppc-patch.patch
|
---|
[c9a095c] | 71 |
|
---|
[46b85b6] | 72 | * Add descriptions what the patches do we use (like the console-tools and gzip
|
---|
| 73 | patches)
|
---|
[c9a095c] | 74 |
|
---|
[46b85b6] | 75 | * Try out Slackware's MAKEDEV script and see if it's any better than the
|
---|
[c9a095c] | 76 | currently used one. A copy can be found at
|
---|
| 77 | http://download.linuxfromscratch.org/misc/Slackware-MAKEDEV
|
---|
| 78 |
|
---|
[46b85b6] | 79 | * Add netkit-base and net-tools to Appendix A.
|
---|
[c9a095c] | 80 |
|
---|
[46b85b6] | 81 | * Suggest using this command to strip debug symbols after you finish
|
---|
[c9a095c] | 82 | chapter 6: find $LFS -type f -exec strip --strip-debug '{}' ';'
|
---|
