I like to lurk on a lot of mailing lists :) Anyway, what's in BLFS right now is pretty close to what's in 7.2. New stuff includes xcb and libpthread_stubs (these are dependencies of libX11). You might be able to disable them if you don't want them. New input layer stuff using inputproto-4.x. This could cause some breakage of input drivers. I recall Jim was trying out an rc a month or so ago and a bunch of input drivers were broken. I assume they're basically dead and can be skipped unless you really need them. I'm planning on blacklisting the broken ones for BLFS, but I don't know what they are yet. New Mesa/GLX bits. Randr-1.2, or at least parts of it. And you should replace xkbdata with xkeyboard-config if you haven't already. Good luck. Let me know how it goes. -- Dan -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
