Q: changing to a UTF locale?

2009-08-10 Thread Jeremy Henty

I'm currently running  LFS 6.3 with the en_GB.ISO-8859-1  locale and I
want to go UTF?  What are the options?  AFAICT I could
  (a) just reboot my current LFS 6.3 into a UTF locale
  (b) upgrade to LFS 6.5 with  my current locale, then reboot into the
  new locale
  (c) upgrade directly to LFS 6.5 in a UTF locale

Are  all/any of  these feasible?   The biggest  problem I  can  see is
postgres, because the locale is  hardwired into the server and it only
supports UTF in UTF locales.  Any other gotchas?

Regards,

Jeremy Henty

Re: gcc-4.3.2 fails to compile in chapter 6.14

2009-08-10 Thread mahesh kumar
Ah yes, I forgot about the other possibility...another typical reason
for missing headers is reusing GCC source. Did you remember to remove
all build and source dirs after every package installation in Chapter 5?

sorry. I didn't remove and even i had built the package in other directory.
Like, i had build gcc in three diretories for every pass. The only reason i
did it because of any crash occurs to the system...

please, help me...

MPFR 2.4.1 Test Failure in 6.5 RC2

2009-08-10 Thread Joe McLaughlin
All,

I'm having trouble with the tests for MPFR-2.4.1 in Chapter 6 of the RC. I
didn't get any compilation or compiling errors; they only showed up in the
test suite. The two tests that failed were tset_ld and tcmp_ld. Because
I'm in chapter 6, this shouldn't matter, but my host operating system is
Ubuntu Netbook Remix, which is based on 9.04.

The relevant parts of the check follow:
--
Error: mpfr_get_ld o mpfr_set_ld  Id

  d=4.903496529371628469751533710223e-4943

Thanks in advance for your help.

I just gave the solution. You must remove the source and build dirs 
after every package installation, as stated on page 5.3. Simply using a 
new build directory is not enough.

any ideas where to find a patch for sysvinit: load_policy

2009-08-10 Thread Justin P. Mattock
when building sysvinit, if wanting to add SELinux support
there needs to be a patch applied(or at least I think)
so that the policy can load at a certain time during boot.

I've tried certain patches from googling but haven't found one
yet that really works.

where might I look for such a patch?
