Re: MySQL and More Control/Package Users Package Mgmt
True, considering the for statement just walks through the entire directory anyhow. ... Maybe there's another reason for walking through the directory, other than just taking the opportunity to catch any other missed dir entries? It occurred to me that maybe once mysql is installed, info can then use mysql to, say, manage a database of entries, or something. Pure conjecture, but if true, it could explain why dir would need to be rebuilt. However, nothing I've noticed in any documentation for either mysql or info suggests that this is actually true. Now, if nothing like that is really going on, then may I submit to the BLFS editors that the suggested install commands for mysql be streamlined and simplified? If the walk through the entire directory is just to pick up any info files that have been missed to date, then I don't think that should be part of the mysql install. It would be more appropriate to put such tidying up in a module of its own. Well, thanks for your time, Trent, and everyone.

Re: stripping down lfs
I built a customized (somewhat stripped, then other things added) LFS back in April, 2009. It's based on the 6.3 LFS live CD with packages updated to the 6.4 book (current at the time). The LFS live CD is a very good starting point. I haven't explored other (even more stripped) alternatives like tinycore. Here's what I posted about it the last time this question was raised: http://linuxfromscratch.org/pipermail/lfs-support/2009-November/036881.html You can fetch my build it sources (that is, the updated makefiles, my notes, etc.) from http://msbit.com/osdv/osdvlfs.tgz -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
