Those are apps as released by upstream and as they always were there minus xinput. I planned something else for xinput and some other apps. I am sure xauth, luit, setxkbmap, xhost, xset are needed in most environments. They are not really big problem to install, do not take much space and do not take long to build. -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
