#2003 closed defect (fixed)

Path for keymaps and screen fonts im chapter 7.6 (/usr/share/kbd) is wrong

Description

I just read Chapter "7.6. Configuring the Linux Console" and its says (almost at the beginning):

"...If still in doubt, look in the /usr/share/kbd directory for valid keymaps and screen fonts. ..."

But before in Chapter "6.42.1. Installation of Kbd" they advice me to compile it like this:

Prepare Kbd for compilation:

./configure --datadir=/lib/kbd

So this is a typo, right? /usr/share/kbd doesn't exist in my installation. It should be /lib/kbd

Yes, it is a typo. It is a known issue that has already been fixed in the development LFS book. It should probably be added to the 6.2 Errata though...
