But Jim, your estimates are unreasonable. By my count, and on my
current build, I've not built much of BLFS, there's 15 packages that
look for the flex program. I've installed another 15 non-BLFS packages
that look for it. Those non-BLFS packages are dependencies of BLFS
packages.
That's 30 packages right there, Jim. And I've only installed a portion
of BLFS.
Instead of making points Randy, let me test things out. Yes some
packages look for flex or bison, but is it actually required is a
different story. I will be the first one admit, if my findings are in
the favor of keeping flex. I will post the results when I get some. If
you want to help, just give me the name of the packages that you found
that require flex and I'll run a test on those specific packages on a
system where flex is absent.
