-These are the TODO items for the next LFS release (3.0):
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-* Create appendix D - Known problems, group by package, list symptoms
|
|
|
- of known problems and solutions (example is the libcurses.a symlink
|
|
|
- in chapter 5, bash)
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-* Chapter 5, bash: add note that when error occurs regarding
|
|
|
- install-info (on Debian systems for example) it can be safely
|
|
|
- ignored.
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-* Chapter 5, bash: when the 'install-info' error corrurs on Debian
|
|
|
- systems, check if this affects && (the message is Error 2 (ignored)
|
|
|
- but does that mean the return value is set to 0 as well...)
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-* Check if findutils dumps binaries in /usr/local/bin
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-* Try out latest shadow suite. If it fails with "nflg undefined" change
|
|
|
- this in useradd.c : line 1768:
|
|
|
- -if (! (nflg || gflg)) {
|
|
|
- +if (!gflg) {
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-* Make a note that during the first reboot an error from sysklogd is
|
|
|
- normal due to missing /etc/services|protocols files which are
|
|
|
- installed when netkit-base is installed later on in chapter 9
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-* Chapter 3: mention lfs-packages isn't for CVS
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-* Fix the static link problems some distro's are causing
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-* Clean out the ethnet script (for interface in $(ls
|
|
|
- /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg* | grep -v ifcfg-lo)
|
|
|
- do) needs some updating for example)
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-* Don't use \u in PS1 when entering chroot to avoid the 'i have no
|
|
|
- name'. After Glibc installation we could modify the PS1 (export
|
|
|
- PS1=newvalues) and test that way if glibc is working properly. This
|
|
|
- saves us the having to exit and re-enter chroot environtment. Another
|
|
|
- idea is to run 'id' or 'whoami' after Glibc installation and check if
|
|
|
- it's able to find a matching username with root's id.
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-* Instead of rm file && ln -s source dest, use ln -sf source dest
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-* e2fsprogs apparently needs ldconfig. Check if there are other
|
|
|
- packages before e2fsprogs which use ldconfig when it's present
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-* Mention more hints through out the books (like BSD hint before
|
|
|
- staring with chapter 7, devfs hint before running MAKEDEV, etc)
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-* Consider ftp://ftp.win.tue.nl/pub/linux-local/utils/kbd/
|
|
|
- to replace console-tools/console-data
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-* Try new procps install:
|
|
|
- make OPT="$CFLAGS" INCDIRS='-I/usr/include -I.' XSCPT='' install
|
|
|
-* When installing Glibc in chapter 6 the mtrace program isn't
|
|
|
- build. Find out why.
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-* Incorporate LFS FAQ in the book
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-* Full dependency list. This list isn't just a list of "package a depends
|
|
|
- on package b", but also a list of "package a depends on b and c from
|
|
|
- package d"
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-* Bring the book up to speed with the current FHS specs.
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-* Mention security patches that can be applied to packages.
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-* Don't run lilo from inside chroot anymore. This causes severe problems
|
|
|
- sometimes including LILO not bootstrapping properly.
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-* Bring back the PPC book (recreate from scratch using current intel
|
|
|
- book) using Jesse McCrosky's notes at
|
|
|
- http://download.linuxfromscratch.org/misc/ppc-notes.txt
|
|
|
- and the patch to the 'patch' package at:
|
|
|
- http://download.linuxfromscratch.org/misc/ppc-patch.patch
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-* Add descriptions what the patches do we use (like the console-tools and gzip
|
|
|
- patches)
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-* Try out Slackware's MAKEDEV script and see if it's any better than the
|
|
|
- currently used one. A copy can be found at
|
|
|
- http://download.linuxfromscratch.org/misc/Slackware-MAKEDEV
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-* Add netkit-base and net-tools to Appendix A.
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-* Suggest using this command to strip debug symbols after you finish
|
|
|
- chapter 6: find $LFS -type f -exec strip --strip-debug '{}' ';'
