Comment (by [EMAIL PROTECTED]):
For some reason, I haven't been getting email updates on the bug.
Anyway, this libtool/autoconf/automake thing has me at a loss. If we move
up libtool, then grep has to go with it. sed is already in the first
block. So, that order would look something like this:
...
coreutils
grep
iana-etc
m4
ncurses
procps
sed
libtool
perl
...
Or, we could leave grep where it is and add /bin/grep -> /tools/bin/grep
to the Essential Symlinks.
I say we ignore automake in autoconf testsuite. They're circular, so
either one has to be in /tools to get full coverage, or we just pick one
that goes first. No one is going to put autoconf in /tools since it
already fights such a bitter battle to stay in LFS at all. So, I say we
keep the order alphabetical with the unfortunate effect that autoconf
loses some test suite coverage.
