  139. where after locking in glibc chapter 6, gcc would no longer function properly
  140. due to a missing libgcc_s library. In troubleshooting, it was found that this
  141. occured because only the .so.1 library was linked from /tools to /usr/lib at
  142. the start of chapter 6. Added a symlink of libgcc_s.so to the createfiles
  143. page in chapter 6.</para></listitem>
  144. <listitem><para>September 10th, 2004 [jeremy]: Modified the instructions to
  145. lock in glibc in Chapter 6, modifying the startfile_prefix_spec parameter in

  158. <listitem><para>September 4th, 2004 [jeremy]: Upgraded to LFS-Bootscripts-2.2.3
  159. which provides the necessary bootscript for syslog-ng. Altered the bootscripts
  160. installation to install the new bootscript.</para></listitem>
  161. <listitem><para>August 31st, 2004 [jeremy]: Replaced sysklogd with syslog-ng,
  162. and it's library libol. Build instructions taken from Jim Gifford's
  163. syslog-ng hint.</para></listitem>
  164. <listitem><para>August 31st, 2004 [jeremy]: Upgrade glibc to tarball based

  166. glibc as well, thanks to the new tarball</para></listitem>
  167. <listitem><para>August 30th, 2004 [matt]: chapter06/util-linux.xml.
  168. -funit-at-a-time is implied by -O2, and it was this specific option that was
  169. causing the runtime problems with sfdisk. Instead of dropping to -O1
  170. optimisation, we simply prevent the problematic optimisation by
  171. specifying -fno-unit-at-a-time.</para></listitem>
  172. <listitem><para>August 30th, 2004 [matt]: chapter06/udev.xml. Renumber udev
  173. permissions and rules files to allow easier customisation. Fixes bug 887.
  174. </para></listitem>
  175. <listitem><para>August 30th, 2004 [matt]: Drop optimisation level of util-linux

  177. </listitem>
  178. <listitem><para>August 30, 2004 [jeremy]: Removing /lib/libproc.so is no longer

  183. <listitem><para>August 27, 2004 [jeremy]: (Experimental) Changed both chapter
  184. 5 and chapter 6 glibc to compile against sanitized headers instead of raw
  185. kernel headers - this brings us more in line with what is considered "proper",
  186. and should have minimal affect on the build itself.</para></listitem>
  187. <listitem><para>August 27, 2004 [jeremy]: (Experimental) Added -B/usr/bin flag
  188. to GCC Pass 1 to solve possible problem where the host's toolchain is
