I think you are saying that the acl patch removes the dependency of attr from acl. The attr patch removes an unneeded library. Is that right? The upstream patch is dated May 2104. It doesn't appear that upstream considers the patch particularly important. The last updates for both attr and acl were May 2013. libcap was Jan 2014. -- Brucexattr has been in GLIBC for a long time. My changes so far use xattr
from glibc and negate installation of libattr, and have attr, acl, and libcap use GLIBC's xattr.
The idea is to use xattr from GLIBC and not from attr.
Are you saying that attr should be dropped? -- Bruce -- http://lists.linuxfromscratch.org/listinfo/lfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/faq/ Unsubscribe: See the above information page
