OK, so I appreciate that the chapter06db.xml
source file isn't pulled into the Book in the "official" rendering, however, I have noticed that if you do add it in, the rendering of the Book fails because the entity &db-fixes-patch; doesn't exist. FWIW. it is used here SVN/LFS-9.0$ grep -r db-fixes-patch * chapter06/db.xml:<screen><userinput remap="pre">patch -Np1 -i ../&db-fixes-patch;</userinput></screen> $ This seems odd, given that the following block of entities for DB-related stuff is there in the 9.0 packages.ent file: <!ENTITY db-version "6.2.32"> <!ENTITY db-size "44 MB"> <!ENTITY db-url "http://download.oracle.com/otn/berkeley-db/db-6.2.32.tar.gz";> <!ENTITY db-md5 "b33491b4756cb44b91c3318b727e71023"> <!ENTITY db-home "https://www.somedomain.tld/db";> <!ENTITY db-ch6-du "0 MB"> <!ENTITY db-ch6-sbu "0.0 SBU"> The other funny thing is that the Berkeley DB package in BLFS is an older revision that the "not-used" one in LFS, 5.3.28, and so there are no clues as to what/where the patch for 6.2.32 is. Presumably someone must have built 6.2.32 and found they needed that patch, but didn't add the entitiy for it ? FWIW, I built 6.2.32 for my LFS 8.4 PkgUser install but didn't know about the patch. Any clues? Kevin PS I may have flagged something about the LFS/BLFS version mismatch before so maybe ignore that as it's not relevant to the lack of the patch/entity. -- http://lists.linuxfromscratch.org/listinfo/lfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/faq/ Unsubscribe: See the above information page
