I was about to make a new post about this problem, but then found the post above, which dates back to September 4 of last year. It describes the exact problem I've discovered, but I am working from the LFS 6.6 book while the message below predates the LFS 6.6 release by months. Having tests fail with the patch while succeeding without it makes me question the need to leave the patch as-is, too. --Larry Gilbert -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/faq/ Unsubscribe: See the above information page
