Consistency is good. I like the dashes because when I build manually following the book, I like to copy and paste the package name to use as the filename of my log file. It would be nice to not have to add the dashes manually (easier to work with than spaces in filenames). -- http://lists.linuxfromscratch.org/listinfo/lfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/faq/ Unsubscribe: See the above information page
