Well, fairly complete build expect Epiphany, Ekegia, and accessibility. Nothing real challenging encountered, a couple of flyby notes below. Having difficulty with webkit. Unfortunately, I don't have the error ATM. Figured I'd get to it later as I don't really need Epiphany. Ekegia would not build without avahi. GDM still needs the patch and symlinks. libdv does not build if X is not in /usr, then it doesn't build because of an incorrect function in Xv (I assume it's just too old)...I don't need it, so omitted. clutter needs patch if X is not in /usr. gvfs still needs giomodulesdir patch. GSD no longer needs patch or massage to find whatever was broken that has slipped my mind when gnome is not system installed (patch accepted upstream). Though I'm forging ahead and using it, thunderbird-3.1 has been very unstable and causes X to lock up. Haven't investigated just yet, but will probably omit gio, or drop back to 3.0.4. Still can't use system xul even though it is 1.9.2. DeviceKit-Disks and DeviceKit-power have been replaced by udisks and upower respectively. built the whole stack without GTK-Doc installed. AFAIK, everything is pre-built anyway, no need to rebuild. libffi can be provided by gcc with java (which I did). Like I said, nothing real challenging at all. Will post a list of packages, versions, and in build order in my homedir in a few moments..say http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/~dj/blfs-6.6-list.txt . -- DJ Lucas -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content, and is believed to be clean. -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
