1 | These are the TODO items for the next LFS release (3.0):
|
---|
2 |
|
---|
3 | * Chapter 3: mention lfs-packages isn't for CVS
|
---|
4 |
|
---|
5 | * Fix the static link problems some distro's are causing
|
---|
6 |
|
---|
7 | * Clean out the ethnet script (for interface in $(ls
|
---|
8 | /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg* | grep -v ifcfg-lo)
|
---|
9 | do) needs some updating for example)
|
---|
10 |
|
---|
11 | * Don't use \u in PS1 when entering chroot to avoid the 'i have no
|
---|
12 | name'. After Glibc installation we could modify the PS1 (export
|
---|
13 | PS1=newvalues) and test that way if glibc is working properly. This
|
---|
14 | saves us the having to exit and re-end chroot environtment. Another
|
---|
15 | idea is to run 'id' or 'whoami' after Glibc installation and check if
|
---|
16 | it's able to find a matching username with root's id.
|
---|
17 |
|
---|
18 | * Instead of rm file && ln -s source dest, use ln -sf source dest
|
---|
19 |
|
---|
20 | * e2fsprogs apparently needs ldconfig. Check if there are other
|
---|
21 | packages before e2fsprogs which use ldconfig when it's present
|
---|
22 |
|
---|
23 | * Mention more hints through out the books (like BSD hint before
|
---|
24 | staring with chapter 7, devfs hint before running MAKEDEV, etc)
|
---|
25 |
|
---|
26 | * Fix the layout of intel/chapter7/usage.xml
|
---|
27 |
|
---|
28 | * Consider ftp://ftp.win.tue.nl/pub/linux-local/utils/kbd/
|
---|
29 | to replace console-tools/console-data
|
---|
30 |
|
---|
31 | * Try new procps install:
|
---|
32 | make OPT="$CFLAGS" INCDIRS='-I/usr/include -I.' XSCPT='' install
|
---|
33 | * When installing Glibc in chapter 6 glibc-build/login/pt_chown isn't
|
---|
34 | installed (we'll copy manually for now) and the mtrace program isn't
|
---|
35 | build. Find out why.
|
---|
36 |
|
---|
37 | * Incorporate LFS FAQ in the book
|
---|
38 |
|
---|
39 | * Full dependency list. This list isn't a list of "package a depends on
|
---|
40 | package b", but a list of "package a depends on b and c from
|
---|
41 | package d"
|
---|
42 |
|
---|
43 | * Bring the book up to speed with the current FHS specs.
|
---|
44 |
|
---|
45 | * Mention security patches that can be applied to packages.
|
---|
46 |
|
---|
47 | * Don't run lilo from inside chroot anymore. This causes severe problems
|
---|
48 | sometimes including LILO not bootstrapping properly.
|
---|
49 |
|
---|
50 | * Bring back the PPC book (recreate from scratch using current intel
|
---|
51 | book) using Jesse McCrosky's notes at
|
---|
52 | http://download.linuxfromscratch.org/misc/ppc-notes.txt
|
---|
53 | and the patch to the 'patch' package at:
|
---|
54 | http://download.linuxfromscratch.org/misc/ppc-patch.patch
|
---|
55 |
|
---|
56 | * Add descriptions what the patches do we use (like the console-tools and gzip
|
---|
57 | patches)
|
---|
58 |
|
---|
59 | * Try out Slackware's MAKEDEV script and see if it's any better than the
|
---|
60 | currently used one. A copy can be found at
|
---|
61 | http://download.linuxfromscratch.org/misc/Slackware-MAKEDEV
|
---|
62 |
|
---|
63 | * Add netkit-base and net-tools to Appendix A.
|
---|
64 |
|
---|
65 | * Suggest using this command to strip debug symbols after you finish
|
---|
66 | chapter 6: find $LFS -type f -exec strip --strip-debug '{}' ';'
|
---|
