The Ch7 change is that the rc and rcS scripts now ask people -to report problems to lfs-dev instead of lfs-discuss. - -September 18th, 2001 [gerard]: Chapter 5+6 - GCC: -Added --enable-threads=posix to chapter 5, and changed --enable-threads to ---enable-threads=posix in chapter 6. Although the default is posix threads when -not specified, it's clearer this way what's being enabled. - -September 17th, 2001 [gerard]: Chapter 6 - Psmisc: -Added notes how to deal with psmisc's pidof symlink (in case sysvinit -isn't installed) and man page. Also, added --exec-prefix=/ to psmisc's -configure script in order for the programs to be installed in /bin -rather than /usr/bin (bootscripts may use them, so they must be in -/bin). - -September 16th, 2001 [markh]: Chapter 6 - Util-linux: -Added USRGAMES_DIR=/usr/bin to the make install routine so that -/usr/games isn't created for banner and it is installed in -/usr/bin. - -September 14th, 2001 [markh]: Chapter 6 - E2fsprogs: -Updated to version 1.24. - -September 11th, 2001 [gerard]: Chapter 6 - Man: Added -missing && to 'done' and chmod the configure script to mode 755 -instead of 700 (more of a default mode so people don't _have_ to be -running as the owner of that file). - - - -3.0-rc2 - September 8th, 2001 - - - -Updated to: - - - -sysvinit-2.82 - - - - - -September 7th, 2001 [gerard]: Chapter 6 - Sysvinit: -Seperated the commands to change the status msg in init.c from the main -commands. - -September 7th, 2001 [gerard]: Chapter 6 - Bash: Added ---login to the exec /bin/bash command. - -September 7th, 2001 [gerard]: Chapter 5 - GCC: Removed -duplicate explanation (the patch and --enable-languages ones) that are -already in chapter 5 - gcc. - -September 7th, 2001 [markh]: Chapter 6 - Sysvinit: -updated to 2.82. - -September 7th, 2001 [gerard]: Chapter 2: Added "How to -ask for help" section. - -September 7th, 2001 [gerard]: Chapter 6 - Makedev: -changed chmod to 754.

Also removed -gzip-exp.xml and shellutils-exp.xml as the explanations are now part of -the installation text. - -September 5th, 2001 [gerard]: Chapter 5 - Bash: Added -notes that the ncurses-dev package must be installed and the libcurses.a -symlink created if missing. Added --with-curses back to Bash's -installation, this now functions as a good test to make sure ncurses is -installed (if not, texinfo will fail). - -September 5th, 2001 [gerard]: Chapter 6 - Net-tools: -Instead of running make install, we now run make update.

It'll have to be -tested again. - -August 28th, 2001 [gerard]: Chapter 5+6+*: Removed the --f flags from cp commands. cp's behaviour has changed with -fileutils-4.1, doing something totally different than -expected. - -August 28th, 2001 [gerard]: Chapter 5+6: Removed some -unnecessary line breaks (so a command continues on a next -line). - -August 27th, 2001 [gerard]: Chapter 5: The former two sed -operations are combined into one sed operation now. - -August 27th, 2001 [gerard]: Preface: Inserted the -currrent LFS website's introduction into "Who wants to read this -book". - -August 27th, 2001 [gerard]: Chapter 1: Synchronized the -changelog, http and ftp mirrors with the LFS website. - -August 27th, 2001 [gerard]: Chapter 6-Glibc and Bash: -simplified the installation instructions. We no longer exit chroot to -finish the installation. This _may_ not work properly if your host -distribution is an old 2.0.x based kernel, but we have no way of testing -this at the moment. We'll deal with that when bug reports come -in. - -August 27th, 2001 [gerard]: Moved rebooting into LFS from -chapter 8 to chapter 9, after we run that find -command. - -August 27th, 2001 [gerard]: Updated the find command in -chapter 9. - -August 27th, 2001 [markh]: upgraded to e2fsprogs-1.23 and -MAKEDEV-1.3. - -August 27th, 2001 [gerard]: Added dependency lists for -all installed packages. You now can see which programs from which -packages you need in order to compile and install a -package. - -August 27th, 2001 [markh]: After a discussion on #lfs, -we've downgraded the book to linux-2.4.8 due to performance problems -with 2.4.9. - -August 26th, 2001 [markh]: Moved appendix c --> appendix d and -appendix b --> appendix c in order to create room for the dependency -information to go into appendix b. - -After much testing and discussing, it's been decided to -downgrade to gcc-2.95.3 for the time being, until problems with the new -gcc-3.0 version have been fixed. - -Chapter 5: sed commands for bzip2 and mawk static -compiles have been replaced with a simpler flag to gcc. - -Chapter 5: A sed for fileutils-4.1 static has been added to -avoid Segmentation Fault problems on glibc-2.2.3 systems. - -Chapter 5: Binutils doens't require us passing -e to -make in order for LDFLAGS=-static to work properly. - -Chapter 5: GCC isn't statically linked anymore by using -make -e LDFLAGS=-static, but by make BOOT_LDFLAGS=-static. - -Chapter 5: Removed kernel patch for gcc-3.0 -compilation - -Chapter 5: Added gcc-patch to fix re_max_failure -compile problems - -Chapter 5: Added missing chown root.root -$LFS/usr/include/linux to kernel installation - -Chapter 5 & 6: Changed tar patch to use -j for bzip2 -files instead of -y in order to be compatible with next tar release. Also -renamed patch file to tar-1.13.patch - -Chapters 5 & 6: Added a new patch for gcc-2.95.3 -which fixes various problems such as the weak symbol -bug. - -Chapter 6: Bzip2 and shadowutils static libraries -are now put in /usr/lib instead of /lib. There are now also links -from /usr/lib to their dynamic libraries in /lib to enable the linker to -still find the dynamic versions. - -Chapter 6: ncurses patch totally -removed. Static libraries now moved to /usr/lib and libcurses.a symlink -created manually. A symlink is also created from /usr/lib to the -dynamic libraries in /lib so that the linker still sees them. - -Chapter 6: Yacc script in bison page now uses exec bison -which replaces the shell. - -Chapter 6: Util-linux sed command has been replaced with a -flag to make. - -Chapter 6: Man patch replaced with -sed command. - -Chapter 6: Removed shadow-utils patch in favour of a sed -command - -Chapter 6: Removed sysvinit patch in favour of a sed -command. - -Chapter 6: Removed the Groff command explanation -regarding CXXFLAGS which has been made obsolete with the update -to groff-1.17.1 - -Chapter 6: Moved the net-tools installation until after -sh-utils so that net-tools can replace sh-utils's -/bin/hostname. - -Chapter 6: After installing Glibc, run exec /bin/bash ---login instead of exiting and re-entering the chroot'ed -environment. - -Chapter 7: Changed $* into "$@" in the functions and rc -scripts. "$@" allows usage of quoted arguments with blanks. - -Chapter 7: Added print_error_msg from the rcS script as -it appears in the rc script as well. - - - -3.0-pre4 - June 22nd, 2001 - - - -Chapter 5: Reordered the installations -alphabetically. - -Chapter 6: Moved the installations of ed and -patch into their alphabetical positions. - -Chapter 7: Added [ ATTN ] warning message to -the functions script. When you attemp to start a service that's -already running or stop a service that's not running, it'll not -print FAILED anymore but [ ATTN ] along with "Already running" -or "Not running". - -Chapter 9: Renamed the network-scripts -directory in nic-config. - - - -3.0-pre3 - May 12th, 2001 - - - -Added numerous FHS compliance notes. These -instructions can be followed if one wishes to build a fully -FHS-compliant system. - -Chapter 4: Updated the directory list to be more -FHS compliant. Mainly this meant adding the opt directories and -removing /usr/tmp and /usr/local/tmp - -Chapter 5: We now copy the kernel include directories -instead of linking to them. This is theoretically safer if we plan on -upgrading the kernel. - -Chapter 5+6: Removed fileutils-patch. After upgrading -to fileutils-4.1 the patch isn't needed anymore. - -Chapter 5+6: Put back the instructions on how to -copy/remove the old NSS library files, in case the original distribution -uses glibc-2.0.x. - -Chapter 5: Added the notice about an old version -of install-info. - -Chapter 5: Removed the installation of a static -gettext. - -Chapter 6: Changed bin86's installation from -"make PREFIX=/usr install" to "make INSTALL_OPTS="-m 755" -PREFIX=/usr install". This will prevent install from invoking strip -s -on the files. This fails because a couple of the installed files are -shell scripts rather than programs, so they can't be stripped. - -Chapter 6: Removed the ld.so section since we -only used the man pages and replaced it with a patch to man-pages. - -Chapter 7+8: Moved the creation of /etc/fstab -to chapter 8. - -Appendix A: Added missing descriptions of frcode, -code and bigram in the findutils-4.1 package. - - - -3.0-pre2 - April 14th, 2001 - - - -Chapter 5: Simplified ln commands. - -Chapter 5: Removed prefix=$LFS/usr from tar's -make install. - -Chapter 5+6: Removed --disable-nls from configuration -of programs that don't need it (bash, diffutils, gzip, sed, -m4). - -Chapter 5+6: Changed from "cd dir && make" -to "make -C dir" (gettext-static, sysvinit). - -Chapter 5: Beautified the static link process -for mawk. - -Chapter 5: Changed the links we create during -gcc-installation to $LFS/usr/bin/cpp. - -Chapter 6: Changed the procps installation -from sed'ing to an easier way. - - Chapter 6: Changed all "rm file && ln -s dest -file" into "ln -sf file" (in glibc, bzip2 and gzip -installations). - -Chapter 6: Added a sed to fix a problem during -glibc-installation. pt_chown can not be installed setuid root, -because "root" is not known by glibc yet (kind of hen and -egg-problem). - -Chapter 6: Changed consoledata/tools to kbd, which -is more actively developed, and less of a pain to install. - -Appendix A: Added the description of the Netkit-base -and Net-tools packages. - - - -3.0-pre1 - February 27th, 2001 - - - -Converted the SGML source to XML. - -Chapter 4: Tell the user to use cfdisk rather than -fdisk. The fdisk man page recommends cfdisk over fdisk because -it's more stable. - -Chapter 4: Changed the wording to make it more general -as ext2 no longer is the only used file system. Reiser for example is -often used too now. - -Chapter 5: Added static mawk, texinfo and partially -gettext to faciliate the move of Glibc from Chapter 5 -to Chapter 6. - -Chapter 5: Added Makedev to chapter 5. We don't create -the device files here, only copy the MAKEDEV script and make a temp -copy which will be used to create device files. This second file -(MAKEDEV-temp) doesn't contain user names and group names but only user -id's and group id's. We need a few device files to get Glibc installed, -but before GLibc is installed user and group names are not recognized yet; -only the numeric id's. This requires a slightly modified MAKEDEV script -which will be generated by patching the original one. This patching is done -here in chapter 5. Also, fixed the explanations on both -makedev installations. - -Chapter 5: Recommended to install all the software -while logged in (or su'ed to) user root. - -Chapter 5+6: Added the fileutils-4.0 patch which is -needed to compile the fileutils package on Glibc-2.2 based systems -(such as the upcoming LFS-3.0 system). - -Chapter 5+6: Upgraded from gcc-2.95.2 to -gcc-2.95.2.1 - -Chapter 5+6: Moved Glibc from chapter 5 to -chapter 6 - -Chapter 6: Changed libexecdir=/usr/bin in fileutils -to libexecdir=/bin - -Chapter 6: Updated Glibc installation instructions. -'configparms' file creation has been deleted. No need to pick a compiler -(either distro's native or the /usr/local/gcc2952/bin/gcc one); -we're in chroot now so we'll use the one we have - -Chapter 6: Only copy the man pages from the -ld.so package. We don't need the ldconfig and ldd programs anymore; -Glibc-2.2.1 comes with good working versions. - -Chapter 6: Added the creation of the lex symlink -to the flex installation. - -Chapter 6: Changed $* into "$@" in the yacc script -during bison's installation. "$@" allows usage of quoted arguments -with blanks. - -Chapter 6: Fixed the man page installation during -console-tools' installation. - -Chapter 6: When entering chroot the $TERM variable -inside chroot is set properly. This is accomplished by: chroot ... --i HOME=/root TERM=$TERM... - -Chapter 6: Merged the different sulogin lines from -the inittab file into one line. - -Chapter 7: Fixed the delays in the killproc function -in the functions script. Now after kill, first check PIDs, then -sleep 2 if needed. More details can be read in the comments -in the script itself. - -Chapter 7: Added the explanation how the runlevels -and boot process works when using the LFS scripts. - -Chapter 10: Added this chapter. It contains "thanks -and good luck"notes and suggest creating the /etc/lfs-&version; -file - - -
