Most of us won't notice this, because we don't run 'date' during the build (or, not in that term/tty). As you say, in other terms / ttys the expected date will be shown. I don't know if it's an expected by-product of how we build, but it seems (from *your* experience) that we should expect it. Is it causing you a problem (e.g. unexpected results in your scripts) ? If not, I see no reason to worry. ĸen -- das eine Mal als Tragödie, das andere Mal als Farce -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
