How about a solution based on inotify?
That would require working linux-libc-headers that support inotify. :D

Not true. Support for kernel features is the responsibility of the
user application. I run Beagle with inotify support, and I don't have
inotify support in linux-libc-headers.

Subject: tar man page missing, man-pages package
I saw an earlier thread for LFS 6.0 regarding the man page for tar

no man page for tar, only an info page.

This doesn't apply to the current build method.
Why?
Since we're running linux 2.6.x, we use linux-libc-headers, which this
definitely doesn't work on. :)

Hi all,
My system has an lfs 6.1 installation, and I have installed the Bind
server 9.3.1, but I can't start named.
I think the cause is this message I have on startup (copied from the

Definitely. :) Man pages usually have something like that in there. :)
Anyhow, I couldn't find lumberjack for download, so I opted for a simple

This is almost always caused from not following the font setup

Indeed, that's what it was... *sigh*
