| #597 | fixed | Revisit binutils ldscripts treatment | ||
| Description |
The way we currently handle the ldscripts is not ideal. Having to keep around the build dir is error prone and generally inconvenient. The last time I looked at this, it was apparent to me that what we are doing is just being overly anal. I will need to research and test this some more and also consult with Ryan. Also need to get to the bottom of how the compiled in ldscripts impact on the situation. Will probably get to this after the 5.0 book release. |

| #598 | fixed | Implement sanity check for the spec file edit(s) | ||
| Description |
The lack of spec file edit will be the number 1 failure point for new readers of the book. We have seen this lots in the post plfs hint period. I propose that we put in a BIG FAT WARNING in the "Locking in Glibc" section. The test could be as simple as something like this:- $ echo 'main(){}' > dummy.c $ gcc dummy.c $ readelf -l a.out | grep tools If there is no ouput then something went wrong and the user MUST be told to STOP and fix up the mistake before continuing. The same will be true (but in reverse) in Ch 6 so we really should do something there as well. I'll commit something appropriate then seek comment. But if you have any concerns in the meanwhile then pls add them to this bug. Thanks. |

| #599 | fixed | Wrong kernel version in changelog.xml | ||
| Description |
Pedantic, but you're going for a nice perfect 5.0 release. I've been following the changes in the changelog, and noticed that it says "linux-2.4.21", which freaked me out, because I THOUGHT I'd updated to 2.4.22, and sure enough, the instructions are 2.4.22...so, type in changelog.xml. Thanks... |
