I'd say just about everyone.. especially those inquisitive types who like to question the rationale of everything :-) All it requires is some dedicated testing and application of common sense. If LFS were to remove the patch from the development release, it wouldn't be too long before the BLFS testing community would find any potential problem, in which case the patch could go back in. This is where automated build scenarios really shine. BLFS is a wonderful test bed for LFS! Refer to my earlier ramblings about DCA (Document Centric Automation). Build all of BLFS automatically. You'll find bugs in BLFS.. and LFS too :-) Regards Greg -- http://www.diy-linux.org/ -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
