johnnyv Posted March 7, 2003 Report Share Posted March 7, 2003 i thought LFS was all compiling from source? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
qnr Posted March 7, 2003 Report Share Posted March 7, 2003 well, you have to have some way to compile it. Generally you start everything off inside of another distribution. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bvc Posted March 7, 2003 Report Share Posted March 7, 2003 http://hints.linuxfromscratch.org/ In the lfs-hints.tar.bz2 there's a rpm hint (tip/howto). You probably want mdk's rpm-rebuilder. I don't know if RH has anything of the sort, or as good, and I don't know the details to accomplish this but maybe the hints will lead you in the right direction. As I expected, my journey with LFS has been dep-Hell. Knowing this from the beginning I'm considering rpm more and more for LFS. I would think a google advanced searched for lfs then a search within the results for rpm will give some good info as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
