Thanks, David. It was bz2, in previous versions, in the book. After ojab pointed out the lzma, I decided to use it instead of bz2, due to the better compression. Same idea as choosing xz, whenever possible, needed package is installed by default in LFS. Saves space, time/bandwidth in anduin and for users. 2.5M curl-7.38.0.tar.lzma 3.1M curl-7.38.0.tar.bz2 -- []s, Fernando -- http://lists.linuxfromscratch.org/listinfo/blfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
