See if this patch helps: http://cvs.fedoraproject.org/viewvc/devel/libcap/libcap-2.16-headerfix.patch?view=co > Bash > Because I was following along with the SVN-20080603 instructions, and > using the version of bash from Onward I hit a snag.

Can we omit the > readline package or do other things depend on it? LFS is using --with-installed-readline (system readline). There must be a way to make it work. I'm also working on glibc-2.10.1 patches. The existing patches have a couple problems. I simplified the arc4random patch, using netbsd's arc4random.c ported to linux. Made __arc4random_stir a weak alias so the internal version is always used, and so it never conflicts with a function in the application or another library. I'm figuring out a test suite for arc4random() just to see that it works. The mktemp_urandom patch uses the wrong error number when /dev/urandom doesn't exist. Fixed mkstemps to use /dev/urandom. I found a test suite from INN (the news daemon). Made strlcat/strlcpy non-static, so they're in the shared library. This will break binary compatibility with other distributions. I found a test suite from INN. Some of the patches were using read(), instead of __read(). Fixed that. What's the view on upgrading GCC? robert
