This is a catch all for the LSB compliance bugs.
Please append any information that the book currently lacks here.
The initial list:
1. /etc/cron.{hourly,daily,weekly,monthly}
This is an easy one for fcron. I'll have to dig up the URL to give
proper attribution, but a
simple shell script already exists, and is very well tested, to honor
these directories and
it works great in LFS...adds three commands to create the script,
create the directories, and
add the times to root's crontab. We also need to review if fcron's
crontab syntax meets the
lsb requirement, or if another cron implementation will be needed.
Also, /etc/cron.d will need support, this is not prewritten.
2. Initscript processing
Again easy, and will probably be handled in LFS, all that is strictly
required is to add the
LSB headers to our existing scripts, though I have a different idea and
a good portion of
of it written already.
3. Facility names and init script names
Currently, the apache script should be renamed to httpd. There are
others as well, but they
seem to have slipped my mind ATM.
4. Add the packages, at, time, RPM, and pax and maybe another cron (See
Bruce's notes in BLFS-Dev
on 20080422).
That is about all I have immediately on the brain, there is more though,
please update when you find something.
