  56. <listitem><para>September 21st, 2002 [timothy]: Chapter 06 - Zlib:
  57. Added <userinput>--libdir=/lib</userinput> flag to
  58. <userinput>configure</userinput>.</para></listitem>
  59. <listitem><para>September 20th, 2002 [timothy]: Chapter 05 - GCC:
  60. Removed the <userinput>--enable-threads=posix</userinput> flag since we
  61. don't build a C++ compiler in this chapter.</para></listitem>
  62. <listitem><para>September 18th, 2002 [timothy]: Chapter 05 - Introduction:
  63. Removed paragraph about static linking since it seems misleading and is
  64. covered in better detail in <emphasis>Why Static</emphasis>.</para></listitem>
  65. <listitem><para>September 18th, 2002 [timothy]: Chapter 08 - Linux:
  66. Removed <userinput>cd</userinput> command.</para></listitem>
  67. <listitem><para>September 18th, 2002 [timothy]: Chapter 06 - Ncurses:

  69. explanation.</para></listitem>
  70. <listitem><para>September 13th, 2002 [gerard]: Chapter 06 - Shadow: Added
  71. --libdir=/usr/lib to the configure script options. This way a proper
  72. <filename>libshadow.la</filename> is generated. Also changed the
  73. <userinput>mv</userinput> command to move all the
  74. <filename>libshadow.so*</filename> files to the <filename
  75. class="directory">/lib</filename> directory. The <filename>lib*a</filename>
  76. files are already in the <filename class="directory">/usr/lib</filename>
  77. directory.</para></listitem>
  78. <listitem><para>September 13th, 2002 [gerard]: Chapter 06 - Man: Added
  79. another regex to the <userinput>sed</userinput> command that modifies the
  80. <filename>man.conf</filename> file. The added regex comments out the
  81. <emphasis>MANPATH /usr/man</emphasis> line which causes for duplicate
  82. results when using the <userinput>whatis</userinput>
  83. command</para></listitem>
  84. <listitem><para>September 13th, 2002 [gerard]: Chapter 06: Added the

  88. link: Made the <userinput>ln</userinput> command an <userinput>ln
  89. -sf</userinput> so the existing <filename>/etc/mtab</filename> file, created
  90. by the <userinput>mount</userinput> command, will be removed before
  91. re-creating it as a symlink.</para></listitem>
  92. <listitem><para>September 12th, 2002 [gerard]: Chapter 06 - Sh-utils: Added
  93. the sh-utils-hostname patch that supresses the build of the hostname
  94. program. This is done because the hostname program from the net-tools
  95. package is superior over this version.</para></listitem>
  96. <listitem><para>September 12th, 2002 [gerard]: Chapter 06 - Gawk: Updated
  97. the Gawk patch. It also changes the <emphasis>DDEFPATH</emphasis> directory
  98. location now.</para></listitem>

  106. installations.</para></listitem>

  109. <listitem><para>September 12th, 2002 [gerard]: Chapter 06 - Configure
  110. Sysvinit: Changed the sulogin line to <emphasis>once</emphasis> instead of
  111. having it respawn. This way it'll behave as expected (ie: a CTRL+D will
  112. continue instead of restart sulogin).</para></listitem>
  113. <listitem><para>September 12th, 2002 [gerard]: Chapter 06 - GCC: Added the
  114. <emphasis>--enable-clocale=gnu</emphasis> option to ensure the proper
  115. locale mode is used by the C++ libraries.</para></listitem>
  116. <listitem><para>September 11th, 2002 [timothy]: Preface: Grammatic

  127. command. Makedev: Removed /bin/bash creation and removal. Man: Modified sed
  128. statement to edit less call, so SGR will work.</para></listitem>
  129. <listitem><para>September 1st, 2002 [timothy]: Chapter 06 - About

  795. <listitem><para>October 12th, 2001 [markh]: Chapter 6 - Util-linux:
  796. Removed the USRGAMES_DIR=/usr/bin entry as it's no longer needed with
  797. util-linux-2.11l.</para></listitem>
  798. <listitem><para>October 9th, 2001 [gerard]: Chapter 6 - Kbd: Removed the

  804. installation instructions to fix a bug in vim-6.0's
  805. <filename>syntax/sh.vim</filename> file, and added the CPPFLAGS variable

  816. <listitem><para>September 26th, 2001 [markh]: Chapter 6 - E2fsprogs: Changed
  817. --with-root-prefix=/ to --with-root-prefix="" in e2fsprogs install
  818. instructions. The reason for the change is that a value of / will cause
  819. symlinks and installation paths to use things like //lib instead of
  820. just /lib. This isn't bad perse, it just doesn't look
  821. nice.</para></listitem>

  835. <listitem><para>September 21st, 2001 [markh]: Chapter 1+7: Changed the
  836. mailing list information to reflect the new ml

  839. <listitem><para>September 18th, 2001 [gerard]: Chapter 5+6 - GCC:
  840. Added --enable-threads=posix to chapter 5, and changed --enable-threads to
  841. --enable-threads=posix in chapter 6. Although the default is posix threads
  842. when
  843. not specified, it's clearer this way what's being
  844. enabled.</para></listitem>
  845. <listitem><para>September 17th, 2001 [gerard]: Chapter 6 - Psmisc:
  846. Added notes how to deal with psmisc's pidof symlink (in case sysvinit
  847. isn't installed) and man page. Also, added --exec-prefix=/ to psmisc's
  848. configure script in order for the programs to be installed in /bin
  849. rather than /usr/bin (bootscripts may use them, so they must be in
  850. /bin).</para></listitem>
  851. <listitem><para>September 16th, 2001 [markh]: Chapter 6 - Util-linux:
  852. Added USRGAMES_DIR=/usr/bin to the make install routine so that
  853. /usr/games isn't created for banner and it is installed in
  854. /usr/bin.</para></listitem>

  858. missing &amp;&amp; to 'done' and chmod the configure script to mode 755
  859. instead of 700 (more of a default mode so people don't _have_ to be
  860. running as the owner of that file).</para></listitem>
