Xi Ruoyao	7546d8b850	Merge remote-tracking branch 'origin/trunk' into xry111/clfs-ng	2023-11-21 08:45:26 +08:00
Xi Ruoyao	e70bf8f4f4	hostreqs: Bump Coreutils minimal version to 8.1 and check for nproc ... We'll use nproc for setting MAKEFLAGS and TESTSUITEFLAGS. And if nproc is not available, we'll end up with "MAKEFLAGS=-j" which is very dangerous because it allows make to spawn infinite number of jobs. Check it early. The nproc program is added in Coreutils 8.1 so we need to bump the minimal version.	2023-11-13 21:00:03 +08:00

Xi Ruoyao	1ebfa8e664	pdf: Allow breaking pages in version-check and kernel configuration ... They are very long <screen> or <note>. By default they are attributed "keep-together.within-column = always", override it to allow line break. Fixes #5336.

Xi Ruoyao	4b1b79442c	hostreqs: Raise texinfo minimal version to 5.0 ... Binutils-2.41 FTBFS with texinfo-4.x. I've tested 5.0 and it works. Link: https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=30703	2023-08-30 00:32:30 +08:00
Xi Ruoyao	0f18f2b121	housekeeping after min-kernel bump ... Update the rationale for min-kernel in hostreqs. Add a note in general.ent about the EOL of current min-kernel. Realign the backslashes in glibc instructions.	2023-06-05 23:20:48 +08:00

Bruce Dubbs	6e4dfa7528	Tweak kernel version in host requirements	2023-03-09 19:51:31 -06:00
Xi Ruoyao	835e40ce16	Adjustments for /dev/pts ... 1. Declare UNIX98 PTY requirement in host system requirements and check it in the script. All desktop or server distros should have it now, but let's stop anyone from building on a embedded distro w/o UNIX98 PTY early... 2. Use Expect test suite as a guard against mishandled $LFS/dev/pts. 3. No need to test the basic function of Expect in Binutils anymore because if ($LFS)/dev/pts is not good, the Expect test suite would have failed.	2023-03-08 11:25:48 +08:00

Xi Ruoyao	b789d88195	hostreq: Minor script adjustment ... - Remove an extra whitespace breaking shebang (though our instruction does not use the shebang). - Adjust the regex to allow several letters after the version number, and match grep version to the text. - Raise Coreutils to 7.0 (for the host requirement script itself). It was released in 2008 so I don't think it's a problem. - Add a colon after the text "Compiler check" to match "Aliases:". - Use grep -o instead of sed to make kernel version check simpler.	2023-03-05 10:01:40 +08:00

Xi Ruoyao	f001ece905	creatingfilesystem: Refine the condition where a FS is needed ... For example, a swap partition does not contain any FS. And, if you want to clone a partition, you can use dd if=/dev/<old-partition> of=/dev/<new-partition> then it's unnecessary to create a FS on new-partition before operation. This is sometimes faster than creating a new FS, mounting both partition, then "cp -av" if the old-partition contains many small files.	2022-09-24 18:48:50 +08:00
