These are the TODO items for the next LFS release (3.0):
* Update binutils section in Appendix A:
I have successfully compiled binutils, but the files created doesn't
match the LFS documentation :
I get 3 extra files : gasp, gprof and readelf. I don't get nlmconv
* Consider ftp://ftp.win.tue.nl/pub/linux-local/utils/kbd/
to replace console-tools/console-data
* Try new procps install:
make OPT="$CFLAGS" INCDIRS='-I/usr/include -I.' XSCPT='' install
* When installing Glibc in chapter 6 glibc-build/login/pt_chown isn't
installed (we'll copy manually for now) and the mtrace program isn't
build. Find out why.
* Incorporate LFS FAQ in the book
* Full dependency list. This list isn't a list of "package a depends on
package b", but a list of "package a depends on b and c from
package d"
* Bring the book up to speed with the current FHS specs.
* Mention security patches that can be applied to packages.
* At the end of the book suggest the user create the /etc/lfs-<version>
file and give a few reasons why the user would want
such a file (example: it's easy to forget after a while which LFS version
you run; it makes debugging easier for us knowing which LFS version a user
is running).
* Explain how changing runlevels works. Use the file written by Simon
Perreault at http://download.linuxfromscratch.org/misc/runlevels.txt
* Don't run lilo from inside chroot anymore. This causes severe problems
sometimes including LILO not bootstrapping properly.
* Bring back the PPC book (recreate from scratch using current intel
book) using Jesse McCrosky's notes at
http://download.linuxfromscratch.org/misc/ppc-notes.txt
and the patch to the 'patch' package at:
http://download.linuxfromscratch.org/misc/ppc-patch.patch
* Add descriptions what the patches do we use (like the console-tools and gzip
patches)
* Try out Slackware's MAKEDEV script and see if it's any better than the
currently used one. A copy can be found at
http://download.linuxfromscratch.org/misc/Slackware-MAKEDEV
* Sed'ing the MAKEDEV script gives us hda[1-20], hdb[1-20] and so forth.
Mention that all of these can't actually be used due to kernel
limitations (IDE goes to 16 max for example).
* Mention LFS should be installed as user root
* Add netkit-base and net-tools to Appendix A.
* Suggest using this command to strip debug symbols after you finish
chapter 6: find $LFS -type f -exec strip --strip-debug '{}' ';'
