why do it for only 2 out of 48 packages?

comment:2 by gerard@…, 25 years ago

After having given this some thought and re-reading messages from other people who have expressed interest in it, it may be a nice thing to add at least disk usage for that package and a rough compile time estimate. We don't want to add 10 different system configurations with different compile times, so we'll have to use a slightly lower end PC that most people are probably using these days. I think my Celeron 533 mhz fits nicely. It's just a rough estimate anyway...

I haven't assigned myself to this as you guys can already start working on the file size thing. Compile a package, run "du -h dirname" on the top level directory and that's the number in MB's that you will write down. Not sure where to fit this number, that can be discussed on lfs-book outside of bugzilla

Entities are now there. Gerard will close this bug when the sizes and times are added.

"Estimated build time: 1 minutes"

We should make that "1 minute"

D'uh me. Yes that would only make sense, wouldn't it. It's fixed now
