I didn't know how many places each entity was used so I didn't change it. It's really kinda esoteric though. The only ones that need to change this are editors and it's really pretty obvious what should be changed. > Also, if we're generating these tarballs automagically now, perhaps they > don't even need a version entity? Just use the same version as the book which > would be, for example, 'SVN-20080522'. The problem is that the book changes a lot more frequently than the boot scripts or udev config files. I really don't think that it is a good idea to roll the scripts often. They should reflect the contents of the tarballs, not the date of the latest svn. -- Bruce -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/faq/ Unsubscribe: See the above information page
