  56. <listitem><para>September 21st, 2002 [timothy]: Chapter 02:
  57. Applied Bill Maltby's grammatic-fixes patch.</para></listitem>
  58. <listitem><para>September 21st, 2002 [timothy]: Chapter 06 - Zlib:
  59. <userinput>mv</userinput> shared lib to /lib.</para></listitem>
  60. <listitem><para>September 20th, 2002 [timothy]: Chapter 05 - GCC:
  61. Removed the <userinput>--enable-threads=posix</userinput> flag since we
  62. don't build a C++ compiler in this chapter.</para></listitem>
  63. <listitem><para>September 18th, 2002 [timothy]: Chapter 05 - Introduction:
  64. Removed paragraph about static linking since it seems misleading and is
  65. covered in better detail in <emphasis>Why Static</emphasis>.</para></listitem>
  66. <listitem><para>September 18th, 2002 [timothy]: Chapter 08 - Linux:
  67. Removed <userinput>cd</userinput> command.</para></listitem>

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

  89. link: Made the <userinput>ln</userinput> command an <userinput>ln

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

  110. <listitem><para>September 12th, 2002 [gerard]: Chapter 06 - Configure
  111. Sysvinit: Changed the sulogin line to <emphasis>once</emphasis> instead of
  112. having it respawn. This way it'll behave as expected (ie: a CTRL+D will
  113. continue instead of restart sulogin).</para></listitem>
  114. <listitem><para>September 12th, 2002 [gerard]: Chapter 06 - GCC: Added the

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

  846. <listitem><para>September 17th, 2001 [gerard]: Chapter 6 - Psmisc:
  847. Added notes how to deal with psmisc's pidof symlink (in case sysvinit
  848. isn't installed) and man page. Also, added --exec-prefix=/ to psmisc's
  849. configure script in order for the programs to be installed in /bin
  850. rather than /usr/bin (bootscripts may use them, so they must be in
  851. /bin).</para></listitem>

  859. missing &amp;&amp; to 'done' and chmod the configure script to mode 755
