The original goal was to help developers and testers to build by the book LFS systems. Then it was expanded to be more average user friendly. And now we are pondering the possibility to use jhalfs as the books parser for the new (under development) alfs sever/client tools. > My suggestion is that > LFS book should provide the actual package file names > (along with the URLs). Packages names are very stables (except for the version string). The current jhalfs code to find the actual package name could work for years. URLs are more volatile values, a today "official" download URL may not work tomorrow due domain or relative path changes. See as an example the reports to the BLFS lists about not working download URLs. Thus, I can't see for now what can be gain hardcoding that values into the LFS sources instead of into the jhalfs code :-? -- Manuel Canales Esparcia Usuario de LFS nº2886: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org LFS en castellano: http://www.escomposlinux.org/lfs-es http://www.lfs-es.com TLDP-ES: http://es.tldp.org -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/alfs-discuss FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/faq/ Unsubscribe: See the above information page
