1These are the TODO items for the next LFS release (3.0):
2
3* Update binutils section in Appendix A:
4 I have successfully compiled binutils, but the files created doesn't
5 match the LFS documentation :
6 I get 3 extra files : gasp, gprof and readelf. I don't get nlmconv
7
8* Consider ftp://ftp.win.tue.nl/pub/linux-local/utils/kbd/
9 to replace console-tools/console-data
10
11* Try new procps install:
12 make OPT="$CFLAGS" INCDIRS='-I/usr/include -I.' XSCPT='' install
13* When installing Glibc in chapter 6 glibc-build/login/pt_chown isn't
14 installed (we'll copy manually for now) and the mtrace program isn't
15 build. Find out why.
16
17* Incorporate LFS FAQ in the book
18
19* Full dependency list. This list isn't a list of "package a depends on
20 package b", but a list of "package a depends on b and c from
21 package d"
22
23* Bring the book up to speed with the current FHS specs.
24
25* Mention security patches that can be applied to packages.
26
27* At the end of the book suggest the user create the /etc/lfs-<version>
28 file and give a few reasons why the user would want
29 such a file (example: it's easy to forget after a while which LFS version
30 you run; it makes debugging easier for us knowing which LFS version a user
31 is running).
32
33* Explain how changing runlevels works. Use the file written by Simon
34 Perreault at http://download.linuxfromscratch.org/misc/runlevels.txt
35
36* Don't run lilo from inside chroot anymore. This causes severe problems
37 sometimes including LILO not bootstrapping properly.
38
39* Bring back the PPC book (recreate from scratch using current intel
40 book) using Jesse McCrosky's notes at
41 http://download.linuxfromscratch.org/misc/ppc-notes.txt
42 and the patch to the 'patch' package at:
43 http://download.linuxfromscratch.org/misc/ppc-patch.patch
44
45* Add descriptions what the patches do we use (like the console-tools and gzip
46 patches)
47
48* Try out Slackware's MAKEDEV script and see if it's any better than the
49 currently used one. A copy can be found at
50 http://download.linuxfromscratch.org/misc/Slackware-MAKEDEV
51
52* Sed'ing the MAKEDEV script gives us hda[1-20], hdb[1-20] and so forth.
53 Mention that all of these can't actually be used due to kernel
54 limitations (IDE goes to 16 max for example).
55
56* Mention LFS should be installed as user root
57
58* Add netkit-base and net-tools to Appendix A.
59
60* Suggest using this command to strip debug symbols after you finish
61 chapter 6: find $LFS -type f -exec strip --strip-debug '{}' ';'
