After I made the initial comment about the transient version, I did some more research. I beleieve right now that either the patch or the point release on the ntp website will work, but using the point release gives a little more of an update to the package and makes things slightly easier for us to integrate in the book, both now and when 4.21 comes out. I do not, however, want to track any other point release between the current one and 4.21 unless there is a compelling reason such as security or functional breakage. -- Bruce -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
