I'd really like to avoid using both Oracle's Java and Adobe's (frozen) Flash. And I'm planning to stradle the BLFS for LFS-7.2, with more current packages, Firefox-31.4esr instead of 16.1. I'm just starting that path, so pardon me if I get some of this wrong. I'm hoping that having a (somewhat?) non-standard implementation, the "attack surface" will have some "ripples". ;-)
So I'm planning on installing gnash, though I think I'll follow my BLFS book for that, omitting pulseaudio. Anybody know any pitfalls not in the book they'd like to tell me about? Then because Java is such a huge attack surface, this is where I want the latest versions of OpenJDK-2.5.4 and Iced-Tea Web-1.5. Again, is there anything in particular I should know to make the straddle work? -- Paul Rogers [email protected] Rogers' Second Law: "Everything you do communicates."
