shadowed passwords.
May 21st, 2003 [winkie]: Chapter 06 - Creating Files: All
those ln commands can be made into a few long ln
commands.
May 21st, 2003 [winkie]: Chapter 05 - Installing
Glibc: Create an ld.so.conf file before building Glibc, to prevent an
(harmless) error.
May 21st, 2003 [winkie]: Chapter 06 - Installing Glibc:
Don't bother doing the 'exec /stage1/bin/bash' stuff, it doesn't do anything

Coreutils: Only test the non-root stuff in Chapter 05, but test everything
in Chapter 06.
May 21st, 2003 [winkie]: Chapter 05 - Installing Expect:

make install to make
update.

./configure to fix patch build on PPC.
May 13th, 2003 [gerard]: Chapter 06: When we

+h to keep the hashing option turned off. Fixes bug
#531
May 13th, 2003 [gerard]: Chapter 06 - Basic Network:

in /stage1/bin do the job just fine.
May 13th, 2003 [winkie]: Chapter 06 - Installing Shadow:
Touching the /usr/bin/passwd file before installation. Not doing so results in
Shadow thinking passwd will be in /bin/passwd.
May 13th, 2003 [winkie]: Chapter 06 - Installing Procps:
Remove the /lib/libproc.so symlink. No package outside of Procps itself
uses this library, and none should.
May 13th, 2003 [winkie]: Chapter 06 - Installing Net-tools:
Run "make config" before doing make. Fixes bugs #462 and
#497.
May 13th, 2003 [gerard]: Chapter 06 - Ncurses: Added the
vsscanf patch.
May 12th, 2003 [gerard]: Chapter 05 - Gzip: Removed
make check. It doesn't do
anything.
May 12th, 2003 [winkie]: Chapter 05 - Installing Texinfo:
Don't install the texmf data. It's not used by anything.
May 12th, 2003 [winkie]: Chapter 05 & 06 - Installing
Ncurses: In Chapter 6, symlink creation has been updated to include
libcurses.*, and libncurses++.a has its properties changed to 644.
Chapter 5 doesn't need any libcurses.* so those are removed.
May 12th, 2003 [gerard]: Chapter 06 - Basic Network: Added
$(hostname) to /etc/hosts, without it Perl's hostname test doesn't
pass.
May 12th, 2003 [gerard]: Chapter 06 - Installing GCC:
Don't try to remove /usr/include/libiberty.h. It isn't installed in the
first place.
May 12th, 2003 [winkie]: Upgraded to findutils-4.1.7,
gzip-1.3.5, and tar-1.13.25.
May 12th, 2003 [winkie]: Chapter 05 - Installing Perl:
Added extra commands to build certain modules into Perl. This is to accommodate
the Coreutils "make check". Partially fixes bug #528.
May 12th, 2003 [winkie]: Chapter 05 - Installing Gzip:
Nothing in Chapter 6 checks for or uses the uncompress command,
therefore we shouldn't create it.
May 12th, 2003 [winkie]: Chapter 05 - Installing Bzip2:
Running "make" implies "make check", therefore there is no reason
whatsoever for us to run it manually.
May 12th, 2003 [winkie]: Chapter 05 - Installing
Lfs-Utils: Removed. The only package that checks for mktemp before it is
installed is GCC, and that's only for gccbug.
May 11th, 2003 [gerard]: Chapter 06 - GCC-2.95.3: Added
--enable-threads=posix as well to complete the C++ addition.
May 11th, 2003 [gerard]: Chapter 06 - GCC-2.95.3: Added
--enable-languages=c,c++ to fix that GCC's version bug with regards to
-Wreturn-type. Fixes bug #525
May 11th, 2003 [gerard]: Chapter 05 - Bash: Removed the
--without-bash-malloc configure option.
May 11th, 2003 [gerard]: Updated to
gcc-3.2.3-specs-4.patch.
May 11th, 2003 [winkie]: Chapter 06 - Setting up Basic
Networking: Added section. Create a basic /etc/hosts files, and create
/etc/services and /etc/protocols from IANA. Fixes bugs #359 &
#515.
May 11th, 2003 [winkie]: Upgrading to lfs-utils-0.2.2.
This adds two files needed for proper networking configuration.
May 11th, 2003 [winkie]: Removed Netkit-base 0.17. Added
Inetutils 1.4.2. Fixes bug #490.
May 11th, 2003 [winkie]: Added lfs-utils-0.2.1. Fixes bug
#493.
May 11th, 2003 [winkie]: Chapter 06 - Installing Ncurses:
Fix up the symlinks so that they follow suit of other library symlinks.
No more weirdness here.
May 11th, 2003 [winkie]: Chapter 06 - Installing Procps:
Removed XSCPT="" cruft and its corresponding paragraph. This stuff
isn't needed anymore.
May 11th, 2003 [winkie]: Chapter 06 - Installing Ncurses:
Pass --without-debug to the configure script. It seems to have gotten
lost at some point.
May 11th, 2003 [timothy]: Chapter 5 & 6 - Installing
Bzip2, Installing Zlib: Modified build commands per bug #524.
May 11th, 2003 [winkie]: Chapter 06 - Installing Glibc:
Install the linuxthreads man pages, too. This got lost somewhere.
May 11th, 2003 [winkie]: Chapter 06 - Installing Grep:
Added --with-included-regex to prevent Grep from using Glibc's somewhat
bugged regex.
May 11th, 2003 [winkie]: Chapter 06 - Installing Coreutils:
Fix some functionality of the uname command with a patch.
May 11th, 2003 [winkie]: Chapter 06 - Installing Net-tools:
Just do regular old "make install" instead of "make update". The latter
works fine now.
May 11th, 2003 [winkie]: Chapter 06 - Installing GCC:
After installation, remove /usr/include/libiberty.h. It is not used
outside of the GCC build tree.
May 11th, 2003 [winkie]: Upgraded to Bash 2.05b and
added its patch.
May 11th, 2003 [winkie]: Chapter 06 - Installing Zlib:
Apply a patch to fix the buffer overflow in gzprintf().
May 11th, 2003 [winkie]: Chapter 06 - Configuring system
components: Moved the creation of the btmp, wtmp, lastlog and utmp to
just before Shadow, so that they are detected at their proper locations.
May 10th, 2003 [winkie]: Chapter 06 - Installing Automake:
Run "make" before installing. This is needed now with the newer releases
of Automake.
May 10th, 2003 [winkie]: Chapter 06 - Installing Vim:
Removed the patch. It hasn't been required since GCC 3.2.1.
May 10th, 2003 [winkie]: Chapter 06 - Creating the mtab
file: Removed. Mounting /proc has the side effect of creating /etc/mtab
for us.
May 10th, 2003 [winkie]: Chapter 06 - Installing Make:
Removed modification of /usr/bin/make file. It is no longer mistakenly
installed with strange ownership or permissions.
May 10th, 2003 [winkie]: Chapter 06 - Installing Glibc:
Made /etc/localtime a file instead of a symlink. The symlink method breaks
on systems where /usr is a separate partition.
May 10th, 2003 [winkie]: Chapter 06 - Installing E2fsprogs:
Removed install-info commands for e2fsprogs. The "make install" target
handles this for us.
May 10th, 2003 [gerard]: Removed all CFLAGS and LDFLAGS
variables where they are not essential (so, not including static binutils,
GCC and compiling Zlib with -fPIC).
May 10th, 2003 [gerard]: Chapter 05 - Binutils (pass1,
pass2), locking in Glibc and adjusting toolchain: Changed tooldir to /stage1
(likewise we use tooldir=/usr in Chapter 6).
May 10th, 2003 [gerard]: Chapter 05 - Kernel headers:
Removed the usage of cp -H because there are
distributions out there that do not know about the
-H option.
May 10th, 2003 [gerard]: New
gcc-3.2.3-specs-3.patch.
May 10th, 2003 [gerard]: Chapter 06 - Adjusting toolchain:
Made it more architecture-independent.
May 10th, 2003 [gerard]: Chapter 05 - Locking in Glibc:
Made it more architecture-independent.
May 7th, 2003 [gerard]: Removed GCC No Debug patches. No
longer assume gcc-core and gcc-g++ packages are downloaded, so added
appropriate --enable-languages options.
May 7th, 2003 [gerard]: Removed Chapter 6 - Glibc-Pass2.
It's not needed anymore with the pure-lfs integration.
May 7th, 2003 [gerard]: Downgraded to flex-2.5.4a again.
Newer versions just don't work properly.
May 5th, 2003 [gerard]: Removed zlib installation from
chapter 5 (its inclusion was a mistake).
May 5th, 2003 [gerard]: Various bug fixes that were
introduced during the pure-lfs integration.

e2fsprogs-1.33, file-4.02, flex-2.5.31, gawk-3.1.2, gcc-3.2.3, glibc-2.3.2,

coreutils-5.0, dejagnu-1.4.3, expect-5.38, gawk-3.1.2, gcc-2.95.3,
tcl-8.4.2
