Hi,
Referencing ticket 1827
(http://wiki.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/ticket/1827), I was hoping for
some review on a commit to put a link to Locale Related Issues for
Nano-1.2.5. On the Locale page, there's simply a link to the 1.3.11
tarball with the information that the build instructions are the same.
Any suggestions are welcome. The text is really redundant right now.
I've attached the diff. A rendered copy of the book pages is here:
