why not just rebuild and install the two relevant programs after systemd, seems much cleaner to me or am I missing something

Since we don't need util-linux extracted twice in final system and then add another page, util-linux pass2 and then rebuild and install, may as well do it once and only move util linux towards the end. It'd definitely be easier to build util-linux twice without book edits, but it is much easier to add the very few book edits to e2fsprogs and systemd to utilize util-linux from /tools.

Another option is to do this:

Because of utilizing libblkid from tools, which means the multilib books need multiple util linux builds for 32bit and n32 libblkid installs, I say we put a note at util-linux stating if you want to utilize the extra features for findmnt and lsblk and udev, rebuild util-linux after systemd.

How does that sound?

This is definitely more work than should be required just to include util-linux.

I've never used the utilties, but someone out there may use them and want the extra features when using findmnt and lsblk when using libudev.

Sincerely,

William Harrington
