[blfs-dev] Lynx 2.8.8 in BLFS 7.5 - silent version change?
Hi The file I have just downloaded today has failed a checksum test, the actual checksum being as follows: md5sum lynx2.8.8.tar.bz2 b231c2aa34dfe7ca25681ef4e55ee7e8 lynx2.8.8.tar.bz2 rather than f467c043fe9a3963fc1c05f54923803f as stated in the BLFS 7.5 book. Further investigation reveals that the CHANGES file in the source root folder states that the current version is now 2014-03-09 (2.8.8rel.2) (currently the version in the Development Book), rather than the original release. The download location is still http://lynx.isc.org/lynx2.8.8/lynx2.8.8.tar.bz2 (or the same as ftp:) David -- http://lists.linuxfromscratch.org/listinfo/blfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page

The one in BLFS 7.5 can be found here: http://anduin.linuxfromscratch.org/sources/BLFS/7.5/l/lynx2.8.8.tar.bz2 and has the md5sum as in the book 7.5. New entry in the errata, perhaps? -- []s, Fernando -- http://lists.linuxfromscratch.org/listinfo/blfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page

It's pretty crappy that upstream changes the underlying file for a link. lfs-7.5 assumes lynx2.8.8rel.1.tar.bz2, but the web page points to lynx2.8.8rel.2.tar.bz2. I guess they are too lazy to update the web page. We've already updated the -dev version of BLFS to point to the full filename. The upstream url for lfs-7.5 should be http://lynx.isc.org/current/lynx2.8.8rel.1.tar.bz2 There is no actual lynx2.8.8.tar.bz2. -- Bruce -- http://lists.linuxfromscratch.org/listinfo/blfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
