  141. <listitem><para>September 26th, 2001 [gerard]: Chapter 1 - News server:
  142. Added reference to the news server</para></listitem>
  143. <listitem><para>September 26th, 2001 [markh]: Chapter 6 - E2fsprogs: Changed
  144. --with-root-prefix=/ to --with-root-prefix="" in e2fsprogs install
  145. instructions. The reason for the change is that a value of / will cause
  146. symlinks and installation paths to use things like //lib instead of
  147. just /lib. This isn't bad perse, it just doesn't look
  148. nice.</para></listitem>

  160. </itemizedlist>
  161. </para></listitem>
  162. <listitem><para>September 21st, 2001 [markh]: Chapter 1+7: Changed the
  163. mailing list information to reflect the new ml
  164. structure. The Ch7 change is that the rc and rcS scripts now ask people
  165. to report problems to lfs-dev instead of lfs-discuss.</para></listitem>
  166. <listitem><para>September 18th, 2001 [gerard]: Chapter 5+6 - GCC:
  167. Added --enable-threads=posix to chapter 5, and changed --enable-threads to
  168. --enable-threads=posix in chapter 6. Although the default is posix threads
  169. when
  170. not specified, it's clearer this way what's being
  171. enabled.</para></listitem>
  172. <listitem><para>September 17th, 2001 [gerard]: Chapter 6 - Psmisc:
  173. Added notes how to deal with psmisc's pidof symlink (in case sysvinit
  174. isn't installed) and man page. Also, added --exec-prefix=/ to psmisc's
  175. configure script in order for the programs to be installed in /bin
  176. rather than /usr/bin (bootscripts may use them, so they must be in
  177. /bin).</para></listitem>
  178. <listitem><para>September 16th, 2001 [markh]: Chapter 6 - Util-linux:
  179. Added USRGAMES_DIR=/usr/bin to the make install routine so that
  180. /usr/games isn't created for banner and it is installed in
  181. /usr/bin.</para></listitem>
  182. <listitem><para>September 14th, 2001 [markh]: Chapter 6 - E2fsprogs:
  183. Updated to version 1.24.</para></listitem>
  184. <listitem><para>September 11th, 2001 [gerard]: Chapter 6 - Man: Added
  185. missing &amp;&amp; to 'done' and chmod the configure script to mode 755
  186. instead of 700 (more of a default mode so people don't _have_ to be
  187. running as the owner of that file).</para></listitem>
