Therefore we can assume that allowing the kernel's headers to be installed is the well-tested choice.
In the sense that LFS is "your distro, your rules" you are, of course, free to do things differently. I've no idea *which* packages in a fully-built system use these particular headers (probably, not much in LFS itself). Taking a look at the two sets of headers, they aren't *that* different, so it is possible that both *might* work. ĸen -- After tragedy, and farce, "OMG poneys!" -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
