Hi William, The method you described works fine, in about half an hour I've narrowed down my search to about 40 revisions, and I've rebuilt a book which I believe is close enough. Plus I learned about the wiki and svn :-)
Thanks a lot !

Then I lost both the LFS and BLFS books I had downloaded, through a stupid accident with my files. Now I've managed to find the LFS 7.1 book again, but how/where can I find the same version of blfs, to be sure that the package versions are consistent ? http://wiki.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/browser Look for the revision which had your versions by looking at the revision log of http://wiki.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/browser/trunk/BOOK/general.ent and find the revision which had your versions before they were updated. Then you can use subversion and checkout the book at that revision and then render the book with your host. Look at older revisions or download the BLFS book: svn co svn://svn.linuxfromscratch.org/BLFS/trunk/BOOK Then view the revision log: svn log | grep dhcpcd -B 2 (when looking when dhcpcd was updated or libnl or which or wireless_tools or wpa_supplicant.) It'll get you close. At any time you find the revision you want, you can enter that revision to view at the wiki and browse the source and see if that revision has the versions you need in general.ent. There may be easier ways for this, though.
