I think they should be left in with a note explaining the situation. We do need twm and a couple of other x applications to test the installation before a user goes on to install a more sophisticated window manager. This presents the user with the necessary information to modify the wget files to customize the install, but sets the default to the traditional set of programs. -- Bruce -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
