- These are the TODO items for the next LFS release (3.0):
- * 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 $(ls
- /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg* | grep -v ifcfg-lo)
- do) needs some updating for example)
- * Don't use \u in PS1 when entering chroot to avoid the 'i have no
- name'. After Glibc installation we could modify the PS1 (export
- PS1=newvalues) and test that way if glibc is working properly. This
- saves us the having to exit and re-end chroot environtment. Another
- idea is to run 'id' or 'whoami' after Glibc installation and check if
- it's able to find a matching username with root's id.
- * Instead of rm file && ln -s source dest, use ln -sf source dest
- * e2fsprogs apparently needs ldconfig. Check if there are other
- packages before e2fsprogs which use ldconfig when it's present
- * Mention more hints through out the books (like BSD hint before
- staring with chapter 7, devfs hint before running MAKEDEV, etc)
- * Fix the layout of intel/chapter7/usage.xml
-
- * Consider ftp://ftp.win.tue.nl/pub/linux-local/utils/kbd/
- to replace console-tools/console-data
- * Try new procps install:
- make OPT="$CFLAGS" INCDIRS='-I/usr/include -I.' XSCPT='' install
- * When installing Glibc in chapter 6 glibc-build/login/pt_chown isn't
- installed (we'll copy manually for now) and the mtrace program isn't
- build. Find out why.
- * Incorporate LFS FAQ in the book
- * Full dependency list. This list isn't a list of "package a depends on
- package b", but 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 '{}' ';'
