I'm sorry, I don't recall bashing the developers for not
fixing
the scripts. I do recall bashing the "it's not our
problem
statement". As a matter of fact, I don't really expect
the developers
to do anything about it all. Hence my description of the
problem
and my solution so others that may experience a similar
problem
may find my solution useful.
As to compiling using a live CD, that works really good IF
you
have a CD drive.
And yes I'm acutely aware of distro differences and version
differences with a particular distro . Not only does my
software
deal with all of the assorted linux distro particularities,
it
also deals with OS differences between linux, Solaris, AIX,
HP/UX,
QNX, and SCO just to name a few.
To be clear, I'm not unhappy with LFS/ALFS. As a matter of
fact, I quite like it a lot. I was just try to suggest a
fairly simple
change to scripts used that would make it even more useful.
But
more it was intended to help out those that may run across
the
same sort of problem.
