OK, the coreutils problem has gone away since both hunks in the patch
were actually obsolite.
Next problem came back to findutils, I did say back at stage 0 it would
bite back at some stage, and i've found some patches against version
4.6.0 and not in T2. I'm going through them carefully 'distribution
against source' to see if they are actually needed or have been played
with the wrong way (for us). I have copies from both another
distribution source I found first and the origonal source's copies and
they are different, like typo's for l (letter l) and 1 (number 1) to
start with that have been fixed.
They !are going to take a couple of days (nights) to do properly, so i'm
not rushing!
I've also asked and received from Rob Landley (toybox, must get around
to adding it to T2) a "Patches for Dummies" writeup. I'll give it it's
own subject email and send it tonight.
regards to all

OK "and away we go" as they say.
First problem is with 1-coreutils
Hopefully easy as it's just a hunk fail problem in disable_man.patch.cross
i'll look at it later, when I get up again.
I need some sleep!

OK I HAVE FINISHED STAGE 0 with two problems left to report on>
PROBLEM 1
Findutils is still failing as it's trying to find
~/TOOLCHAIN/tools.cross/usr/include/limits.h, and
~/TOOLCHAIN/tools.cross/usr/include/bits/posix1_lim.h
which are already at ~/usr/include, installed there by glibc and no
matter what I add to the findutils.conf file it doesn't want to do it. I
even tried linking and copying them with no avail (HELP please Rene!).
Fot now i've chickened out and removed it from stage 0, but I expect it
will resurface soon.
Problem 2
Was with glib failing with a python version error. I eventually found
(after a lot of reading) that the error is actually misleading, the
latest versions wants to use python3, not python2 and the fix was to add
a line to the glib.conf (I did it at the start below the copyright
notice), referance it back to blfs, not me please Rene.
var_append extraconfopt " " "--with-python=/usr/bin/python3"
No doubt you will massage it to use the correct one at ~/usr/bin/python3
(pre ~/TOOLCHAIN) thanks, I wasn't sure how to do it properly, rather
than the system's /usr/bin/python3.
and that problem went away (for good I hope).
and stage 0 was finally completed.
I think, (hope,) that was everything fixed!
If/when the findutils problem is fixed i'll do a single writeup under "A
Fresh Build - Stage 0 Problems (completed) Listed for referance to
anyone in the future.
And now to start Stage 1 Problems
Hopefully few if any!
