For me, either seems acceptable when 2.24 is released. Either way, perhaps better to explain that they fail "in chroot" rather than allow people to think the LFS environment is inadequate ? I also noted "This is the last release where the old non-libmount mount(8) implementation is supported and maintained." Not sure if that will change how 2.25 has to be built, but I guess time will tell. ĸen -- das eine Mal als Tragödie, dieses Mal als Farce -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/faq/ Unsubscribe: See the above information page
