  164. <userinput>mv</userinput> command to move all the
  165. <filename>libshadow.so*</filename> files to the <filename
  166. class="directory">/lib</filename> directory. The <filename>lib*a</filename>
  167. files are already in the <filename class="directory">/usr/lib</filename>
  168. directory.</para></listitem>
  169. <listitem><para>September 13th, 2002 [gerard]: Chapter 06 - Man: Added

  182. re-creating it as a symlink.</para></listitem>
  183. <listitem><para>September 12th, 2002 [gerard]: Chapter 06 - Sh-utils: Added
  184. the sh-utils-hostname patch that supresses the build of the hostname
  185. program. This is done because the hostname program from the net-tools
  186. package is superior over this version.</para></listitem>
  187. <listitem><para>September 12th, 2002 [gerard]: Chapter 06 - Gawk: Updated

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