Ok. Looking forward to it.
1) Drop everything from the main Makefile that isn't really needed
(e.g., "set +h" from lfsenv, because Make runs each command in a
separate bash shell).
2) Reduce variable namespace pollution. Ideally, there should be zero
exports that are not meant to be environment variables.
3) There is a bug that $HOME is set to /root while building /tools. I
discovered it while building a LiveCD for PPC in qemu using cross-distcc
(i.e., a private modification to the build scripts, currently not ready
for merging).
Alright. I'll follow your lead there.
1) the regular "make" command attempts to unpack the tools.tar.bz2
tarball if it exists.
2) if it doesn't exist, it builds /tools as usual and tars them up.
Yes, this is what I was thinking.
In short, if this is useful to you, feel free to implement this yourself.
Yes, I think I might see a use for it. I may go ahead and drop this in.
Also, are you at all interested in trying to extract the commands for
the base-build similar to the jhalfs approach?
