I used LFS as a development machine for the Ronja project (http://ronja.twibright.com) (=my desktop) for many years. Then I moved and installed gentoo. That didn't work well. Then I installed OpenBSD. That didn't work either. Then I installed LFS on the PC in the work and it works fine (except OpenOffice doesn't work, but that's not a fault of LFS, but of OpenOffice). Few days ago I installed my new LFS machine which I am going to use for Ronja development again. Maybe I could put the puzzled Penguin on the Ronja page into the list of used software. The important thing on LFS is that it never fails as a whole because there is no whole. It's just individual parts, and if one part fails, it's a fault of that part and that's not an issue. If a program is badly written, the program should be fixed, not workarounded by someone who has less clue about it than the author. CL<
