Remove $LFS/{bin,lib,sbin} from the chown commands
This applies to 'Section 4.3. Adding the LFS User'
Remove static library in sysklogd
Accomplished with adding --disable-static to the configure options.
The host distro may have an insane default for root_owner and/or
root_perms in /etc/mke2fs.conf, so let's make it sane on our own. Note
that MKE2FS_CONFIG=/dev/null makes mke2fs refuse to run so we cannot
suppress the host mke2fs.conf.
The preceding commit uses <systemitem> elements to mark the lfs
user and group in commands. Unfortunately, this change the
rendering in html, because now lfs appears in an italic font.
Using <userinput remap='group'> or <userinput remap='user'> allows
parsing the XML for jhalfs, but does not change the html rendering.
I still think it's cleaner for jhalfs to just use a different user name
(for example "lfs1") if the user lfs already exists. This will allow
jhalfs to easily use a different user name.
"gcc(1)" is really not a file name.
Use <ulink> and link to the online man page on
https://man.archlinux.org/ so the user can refer to the man pages more
easily.
The change is done via a sed command and long lines are wrapped
manually.
- according to our typography, referring to a manual page should be
<filename>page(x)</filename>
- don't enclose punctuation into quotes
- use <option> for option
This update changes the default number of cores used to build
packages to 4. A section is also added to host requirements
to recommend a minumum number of cores and memory size.
And, don't recommended to "log in as lfs through a DM" anymore: if you
log in through a DM then start a terminal emulator, the first shell in
the emulator is often a non-login shell. It's not something we expect.
"log in" is a specifically defined action on UNIces. When you log in
as a user, an entry will be added into /run/utmp and /var/log/wtmp.
But when you switch to lfs with "su", this won't happen.
"man su" also describes "--login" as:
Provide an environment similar to what the user would expect had
the user logged in directly.
It's "similar to" logged in, not "really" logged in.
So, don't say "log in" or the users may assume they must really log in
as lfs in a VT or DM.
The path to dynamic linker is /lib/ld-linux-aarch64.so.1, no hardcoded
/lib64. It's much better than x86_64 or MIPS64 IMO.
[As a LoongArch contributor & reviewer: we really should have removed
this stupid "64" in the early development stage of LoongArch ELF ABI.]
In the new cross-compilation approach, the $PATH in chroot does not
contain '/tools/bin'. So "+h" is useless in chroot as the newly
installed tools always replace the temporary counterpart at the same
location.
"+h" in chapter4/settingenviron.xml is kept deliberately. Currently
$LFS/tools/bin only contains programs prefixed with
"x86_64-lfs-linux-gnu-", and it's highly unlikely that any distro will
ever ship a program named with such prefix. So it may seems that we can
remove this "+h" as well. However, the situation may change in future
and we can take this oppertunity to teach the advantage and disvantage
of bash hash feature.
It was moved to chapter 4 during merged-/usr update. However the ln
commands in chapater 4 are "trivial", so move it back to chapter 5 glibc
where we start to use a "different syntactic version" of it.
