Hi all, While the first release candidate was released quite some time ago, I've decided to roll out another one.
The reason behind that is mostly because work that was done on BLFS was more or less undone by upgrading many packages to newer versions and that means that most if not all packages should be rechecked once again anyways. In this release candidate I have switched from glibc-2.20 snapshot to glibc-2.20 release and merged the remaining package updates from LFS, which include E2fsprogs, Linux kernel, Man-Pages, Tcl, Tzdata, Util-Linux among others. Util-Linux update was rather important as it contained few critical bug fixes, which, among others, was the one that fixed fdisk that recently got broken. The GCC also got an important fix which fixes a regression from GCC-4.8 series that broke building LLVM-3.5.0, among others. The 3 changes (GCC, Glibc and Util-Linux) were major enough for another release candidate, so I went ahead and merged the remaining packages, out of which no package is known to break something and we recommend to use latest kernel from that praticular series anyways. I apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ That said, the plans to release final 7.6-systemd now align with main LFS and should be released at the same date, given that I'm free on that praticular day. The 7.6-systemd-rc2 can be read online at: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/view/7.6-systemd-rc2/ Or downloaded from: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/downloads/7.6-systemd-rc2/ to read offline. There are no test results or any build logs for this release. I plan to upload new ones for the final release. I encourage everyone to try this release candidate and report any problems with it so the final release can be made as best as possible. -- Armin K., LFS systemd Maintainer. -- www.linuxfromscratch.org -- Note: My last name is not Krejzi.
