  85. <listitem><para>May 21st, 2003 [winkie]: Chapter 05 - Installing

  87. (harmless) error.</para></listitem>
  88. <listitem><para>May 21st, 2003 [winkie]: Chapter 06 - Installing Glibc:
  89. Don't bother doing the 'exec /stage1/bin/bash' stuff, it doesn't do anything
  90. now that we use PLFS.</para></listitem>
  91. <listitem><para>May 21st, 2003 [winkie]: Chapter 05 &amp; 06 - Installing
  92. Coreutils: Only test the non-root stuff in Chapter 05, but test everything

  94. <listitem><para>May 21st, 2003 [winkie]: Chapter 05 - Installing Expect:
  95. Don't both passing anything more than --prefix=/stage1. None of it is
  96. needed.</para></listitem>
  97. <listitem><para>May 16th, 2003 [gerard]: Chapter 06: Net-tools: Changed
  98. <userinput>make install</userinput> to <userinput>make
  99. update</userinput>.</para></listitem>

  101. Added <userinput>CPPFLAGS=-D_GNU_SOURCE</userinput> before
  102. <userinput>./configure</userinput> to fix patch build on PPC.</para></listitem>
  103. <listitem><para>May 13th, 2003 [gerard]: Chapter 06: When we
  104. <userinput>exec /path/to/bash --login</userinput>, also run <userinput>set
  105. +h</userinput> to keep the hashing option turned off. Fixes bug
  106. #531</para></listitem>
  107. <listitem><para>May 13th, 2003 [gerard]: Chapter 06 - Basic Network:
  108. Changed the single quotes to double quotes in the echo command. Without it,
  109. $(hostname) won't expand which defeats the sole purpose of this command -
  110. to make perl's hostname check work.</para></listitem>
  111. <listitem><para>May 13th, 2003 [winkie]: Removed all occurrences &amp;&amp;.
  112. Updated bug syntax. Added "make check/test" where necessary in Chapter

  118. <listitem><para>May 13th, 2003 [gerard]: Chapter 06: Removed TCL, Expect
  119. and DejaGNU. Nothing uses this once past GCC in chapter 6. The versions
  120. in /stage1/bin do the job just fine.</para></listitem>
  121. <listitem><para>May 13th, 2003 [winkie]: Chapter 06 - Installing Shadow:
  122. touch the /usr/bin/passwd file before installation. Not doing so results in
  123. Shadow thinking passwd will be in /bin/passwd.</para></listitem>
  124. <listitem><para>May 13th, 2003 [winkie]: Chapter 06 - Installing Procps:
  125. Remove the /lib/libproc.so symlink. No package outside of Procps itself
  126. uses this library, and none should.</para></listitem>
  127. <listitem><para>May 13th, 2003 [winkie]: Chapter 06 - Installing Net-tools:
  128. Run "make config" before doing make. Fixes bugs #462 and
  129. #497.</para></listitem>
  130. <listitem><para>May 13th, 2003 [gerard]: Chapter 06 - Ncurses: Added the

  132. <listitem><para>May 12th, 2003 [gerard]: Chapter 05 - Gzip: Removed
  133. <userinput>make check</userinput>. It doesn't do
  134. anything.</para></listitem>
  135. <listitem><para>May 12th, 2003 [winkie]: Chapter 05 - Installing Texinfo:
  136. Don't install the texmf data. It's not used by anything.</para></listitem>
  137. <listitem><para>May 12th, 2003 [winkie]: Chapter 05 &amp; 06 - Installing
  138. Ncurses: In Chapter 6, symlink creation has been updated to include
  139. libcurses.*, and libncurses++.a has it's properties changed to 644.
  140. Chapter 5 doesn't need any libcurses.* so those are removed.</para></listitem>
  141. <listitem><para>May 12th, 2003 [gerard]: Chapter 06 - Basic Network: Added
  142. $(hostname) to /etc/hosts, without it Perl's hostname test doesn't
  143. pass.</para></listitem>
  144. <listitem><para>May 12th, 2003 [gerard]: Chapter 06 - Installing GCC:
  145. Don't try to remove /usr/include/libiberty.h. It isn't installed in the
  146. first place.</para></listitem>
  147. <listitem><para>May 12th, 2003 [winkie]: Upgraded to findutils-4.1.7,

  149. <listitem><para>May 12th, 2003 [winkie]: Chapter 05 - Installing Perl:
  150. Add extra commands to build certain modules into Perl. This is to
  151. accomadate the Coreutils "make check". Partially fixes bug #528.</para></listitem>
  152. <listitem><para>May 12th, 2003 [winkie]: Chapter 05 - Installing Gzip:
  153. Nothing in Chapter 6 checks for or uses the uncompress command,
  154. therefore we shouldn't create it.</para></listitem>
  155. <listitem><para>May 12th, 2003 [winkie]: Chapter 05 - Installing Bzip2:
  156. Running "make" implies "make check", therefore there is no reason
  157. whatsoever for us to run it manually.</para></listitem>
  158. <listitem><para>May 12th, 2003 [winkie]: Chapter 05 - Installing
  159. Lfs-Utils: Removed. The only package that checks for mktemp before it is
  160. installed is GCC, and that's only for gccbug.</para></listitem>
  161. <listitem><para>May 11th, 2003 [gerard]: Chapter 06 - GCC-2.95.3: Added
  162. --enable-threads=posix as well to complete the C++

  174. #515.</para></listitem>
  175. <listitem><para>May 11th, 2003 [winkie]: Upgrading to lfs-utils-0.2.2.
  176. This adds two files needed for proper networking configuration.</para></listitem>
  177. <listitem><para>May 11th, 2003 [winkie]: Removed Netkit-base 0.17. Added
  178. Inetutils 1.4.2. Fixes bug #490.</para></listitem>

  184. <listitem><para>May 11th, 2003 [winkie]: Chapter 06 - Installing Procps:
  185. Removed XSCPT="" cruft and it's corresponding paragraph. This stuff
  186. isn't needed anymore.</para></listitem>
  187. <listitem><para>May 11th, 2003 [winkie]: Chapter 06 - Installing Ncurses:
  188. Pass --without-debug to the configure script. It seems to have gotten
  189. lost at some point.</para></listitem>
  190. <listitem><para>May 11th, 2003 [timothy]: Chapter 5 &amp; 6 - Installing
  191. Bzip2, Installing Zlib: Modified build commands per bug #524.</para></listitem>
  192. <listitem><para>May 11th, 2003 [winkie]: Chapter 06 - Installing Glibc:
  193. Install the linuxthreads man pages, too. This got lost somewhere.</para></listitem>
  194. <listitem><para>May 11th, 2003 [winkie]: Chapter 06 - Installing Grep:
  195. Added --with-included-regex to prevent Grep from using Glibc's somewhat
  196. bugged regex.</para></listitem>

  198. Fix some functionality of the uname command with a patch.</para></listitem>
  199. <listitem><para>May 11th, 2003 [winkie]: Chapter 06 - Installing Net-tools:
  200. Just do regular old "make install" instead of "make update". The latter
  201. works fine now.</para></listitem>
  202. <listitem><para>May 11th, 2003 [winkie]: Chapter 06 - Installing GCC:
  203. After installation, remove /usr/include/libiberty.h. It is not used
  204. outside of the GCC build tree.</para></listitem>

  209. <listitem><para>May 11th, 2003 [winkie]: Chapter 06 - Configuring system
  210. components: Moved the creation of the btmp, wtmp, lastlog and utmp to
  211. just before Shadow, so that they are detected at their proper locations.</para></listitem>
  212. <listitem><para>May 10th, 2003 [winkie]: Chapter 06 - Installing Automake:
  213. Run "make" before installing. This is needed now with the newer releases
  214. of Automake.</para></listitem>

  216. Removed the patch. It hasn't been required since GCC 3.2.1.</para></listitem>
  217. <listitem><para>May 10th, 2003 [winkie]: Chapter 06 - Creating the mtab

  223. <listitem><para>May 10th, 2003 [winkie]: Chapter 06 - Installing Glibc:

  226. <listitem><para>May 10th, 2003 [winkie]: Chapter 06 - Installing E2fsprogs:

  230. variables where they are not essential (so, not including static binutils,
