Changelog If, for example, a change is listed for chapter 5 it (usually) means the same change has been made in the chapters for the other architectures. &version; - &releasedate; Chapter 4: Tell the user to use cfdisk rather than fdisk. The fdisk man page recommends cfdisk over fdisk because it's more stable. Chapter 5: Added static mawk, texinfo and partially gettext to faciliate the move of Glibc from Chapter 5 to Chapter 6. Chapter 5: Added Makedev to chapter 5. We don't create the device files here, only copy the MAKEDEV script and make a temp copy which will be used to create device files. This second file (MAKEDEV-temp) doesn't contain user names and group names but only user id's and group id's. We need a few device files to get Glibc installed, but before GLibc is installed user and group names are not recognized yet; only the numeric id's. This requires a slightly modified MAKEDEV script which will be generated by patching the original one. This patching is done here in chapter 5. Chapter 5+6: Added the fileutils-4.0 patch which is needed to compile the fileutils package on Glibc-2.2 based systems (such as the upcoming LFS-3.0 system). Chapter 5+6: Upgraded from gcc-2.95.2 to gcc-2.95.2.1 Chapter 5+6: Moved Glibc from chapter 5 to chapter 6 Chapter 6: Changed libexecdir=/usr/bin in fileutils to libexecdir=/bin Chapter 6: No need to cd into glibc-build before running configure and make. We are already cd'ed into glibc-build when we created the configparms file Chapter 6: Only copy the man pages from the ld.so package. We don't need the ldconfig and ldd programs anymore; Glibc-2.2.1 comes with good working versions. Chapter 6: Added the creation of the lex symlink to the flex installation.
