#4480: eudev instructions refering to /tools
--------------------+----------------------
Reporter: thomas | Owner: lfs-book
Type: task | Status: new
Priority: normal | Milestone: 8.5
Component: Book | Version: SVN
Severity: normal | Keywords: eudev
--------------------+----------------------
As far as i can remember, eudev was not always the very last package in
chapter 6. At this time it might be the case that not everything needed by
eudev was installed already. But now, as it is now the last package,
everything needed '''must''' be installed, otherwise it would mean that
chapter 6 is incomplete.
When everything is installed, i see no need to specify
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/tools/lib compiling that package. I think that is simply
remainder of when eudev was build before core-utils or such...
