Try to find patches which match the As long as the *name* of the patch matches the version you are building, you will be fine. I believe you are referring to the comments in the patch itself, which indicate the patch was initially against 3.4.0? - this is correct, but the patch should apply fine to 3.4.1 (although there may be some "fuzz" or "offsets" - this is normal, and does not indicate a failure). > > Also, am I correct in assuming that all the patches listed > in chapter 3 should be applied before building each package? > No. Only apply the patches as directed by the book (each package install section indicates if a patch is required. The reason is that some patches are only applicable later in the book, or have no benefit in earlier sections. The instructions are fairly explicit about when a patch is needed however. -- - Steve Crosby -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
