But it is not a "fix" to Readline. Why would we want to put it in
that patch? The reason I say this is because it doesn't really fix
brokenness, and what if someone were to try and use this patch in
some application other than building LFS, thinking that the patch
"fixes" stuff.
No big deal, just something to consider. And I do suppose some text
could be added to the patch description so to make it clear there is
some LFS proprietary stuff in there as well.
I think you're probably right. Putting the option on the page makes it obvious what was done.
I thought as we already apply the patch it might be neater to add it in. I went looking for a simpler way to do it because I was working on my buildscripts. Readline is the only thing which needs an option passing to make alone and I wanted to change it to be a regular configure, make, make install. Just thought I'd share what I found.
