I have pkg-config-0.23 in LFS6.5, and 0.25 or 0.26 in the other machines. Only with 0.23, pkg-config comand you gave (thanks for it!), exits with error status 1. So, in the correction for the book, you could, if and whenever you wish, replace: - If you have <application>pkg-config 0.25</application> or older installed + If you have <application>pkg-config 0.24</application> or older installed How safe is to upgrade pkg-config, as I've been having problems in LFS6.5 not occurring in the others, some probably related to this package? About the other mails, thanks for the sed commenting out gtkdoc in Gnumakefile. -- []s, Fernando -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
