I'm quite familiar with what glib does. I'm building a GTK+ and glib free system. (After all, LFS is supposed to be your Linux your way, right?) It may not be optional with an average system especially if GTK+ GUI is used by some packages. However, it is certainly not used on my system at this time and I don't have plans on adding it any time soon. I even use a forked version of sdcv that does not need glib. -- http://lists.linuxfromscratch.org/listinfo/blfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
