I will repeat: I gave all information needed in this thread. The URL for the messages, I would need to search but so could you. I had already searched again which packages needed gnome-icon-theme and spend quit a time searching those informations, giving them to you, trying to help. My interest (and I have been clear about it) is that LFS project, which comprehends LFS (trunk and systemd) BLFS (trunk and systemd), alfs, patches, all project become each day better. Thinking differently is self-destructive. So, repeating again, I cannot understand your reaction. Finally, I will be helping systemd branches of (*)LFS whenever possible. -- []s, Fernando -- http://lists.linuxfromscratch.org/listinfo/blfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
