Here is a page from LFS profile I created. It might help you modify the other pages. I’ll put up everything shortly after I find a file host that doesn’t mind hot linking.

After My last attemp succeeded, I moved onto BLFS(didn’t use profiles because this is my first BLFS attempt and I wanted to do it by hand.) My PC is happy and so am I. Initially I started with console only PC(mplayer and all). Then I needed firefox badly and installed X. No sweat here. I’ve put firefox and gaim in xinitrc and everything just worked. After a bit of probing from a friend, I finally gave in and installed XFCE. Now even my friends can use it.

Last night I have run another build and found a few problems.
- gcc:
- change the ownership of
/usr/lib/libgcc_s.so{,.2} to gcc
- Do not remove the files. They may be required, as is the case with gcc.
- Authorize the action by changing the ownership. The installation will make changes as it sees fit.
- gettext:
- Confirmed: Fails on parallel build
- iproute2:
- works on second run even without
jtag being removed
- Possibly, failing due to not finding a fail that is being created in another thread
- need to check again without
jtags in the first run
- perl:
- Apparently succeeds
- But depends on
/tools and fails the subsequent packages, first of which is autoconf(look below)
- autoconf:
- Searches for perl in
/tools and fails
- Deleting the
/usr/bin/perl symlink is no good.
- How ever changing the ownership before compiling perl worked
- e2fsprogs:
- hotplug:
- Insists on using
/usr/bin/install, thus side stepping the wrappers.
- Use
INSTALL=install param.
- man:
- same as iproute2 and e2fsprogs
- udev
- Similar to hotplug
- Use
INSTALL=install param.

I tried to modify the LFS-6.1-1 ALFS profile for implimenting the changes. I used 6.1 live cd and there are a few digest mismatches. Apparently there was a server hickup and things changed. I guess it’s okay to ignore them. The rest of the errors and temporary work arounds are here.
- gcc:
/usr/lib/libgcc_s.so need to be removed.- change the ownership of /usr/lib/libgcc_s.so to gcc
- See next post for more details.
- coreutils:
- test: need to be run as root.
- uses dummy user so not much prob
- Still I would like to see if it can be done better
- gettext:
- apparently fails on parallel build as I discovered on googling for error
- I assumed the parallel build issue was taken care of in the profile.
- need to check again
- iproute2:
- googling is not good enough. So I guessed based on prev prob.
- works if -j tag is removed
- need to check again
- autoconf:
- Searches for perl in /tools and fails
- Googling shows that the link /usr/bin/perl that points to perl in /tools need to be removed before making perl or need to be relinked to the perl in /usr but that wouldn’t help either because it is already pointing to the perl in /usr
- temporarily I worked around the problem by removing /tools/lib/perl5 and making it a symlink to /usr/lib/perl5
- e2fsprogs:
- same as iproute2
- removing -j tag helped
- hotplug:
- completely clue less
- ended up editing Makefile manually
- no clue on weather it works or breaks anything either
- man:
- sysvinit:
- error:can not remove /bin/pid
- it belongs to psmisc
- udev
- error:trying to change permissions of /etc/hotplug.d/default
- Makefile: install -d $(DESTDIR)$(hotplugdir)

The earlier patch for uid:gid failed because You can’t use it to set additional groups which is required because package users use sticky bit of install dirs owned by install group.
So once more I found myself looking at nALFS code. This time I was looking at change group function in stage.c and discovered that it had been modified earlier for use in chroot environment. I knew it when I saw because I was hoping to use the fget.... functions too. Hmm, looks like the team has forgot to change the change_to_user function. I did it and here is the patch. It’s working just fine.
nALFS-1.2.5-change_to_user.patch
static INLINE int change_to_user(const char *user)
{
struct passwd *pw;
+ FILE *fp;
-
- setpwent();
-
- /* getpwnam() is failing in chroot() */
- while ((pw = getpwent())) {
- if (strcmp(pw->pw_name, user) == 0) {
- break;
+ if ((fp = fopen("/etc/passwd", "r"))) { //setpwent();
+ /* getpwnam() is failing in chroot() */
+ while ((pw = fgetpwent(fp))) {
+ if (strcmp(pw->pw_name, user) == 0) {
+ break;
+ }
}
- }
- endpwent();
+ fclose(fp); //endpwent();
+ } else {
+ Nprint_h_warn("Unable to open /etc/passwd: %s",
+ strerror(errno));
+ }
if (pw == NULL) {
Nprint_h_err("User %s doesn't exist.", user);
return -1;

Achelon!?
What does it mean? Nothing. It just popped into my head.
Now..now.. How many new names and titles can one think of? Atleast my “creativity” levels are this good.anyways, this is just a site I want to use with another of my friend.

As I got no replies for my mail to alfs mailing list, I have finally decided to get my hands dirtier (They are already dirty). I have made a patch for nALFS that seems to do the job of using <user>uid:gid</user>. the usual at your own risk blah blah… disclaimer.
The format <user>uid:gid</user> has to be strictly followed and it won’t check for the format, neither does it have any defaults in case you omit anything. I don’t know if I have broken the original functionality. I had to bypass the user not found check and I didn’t care to adopt it, instead I removed it. So I suggest either you look into it and modify it further or wait till my exams are over and I’ll be more free to work them out.
There is one more catch, there are two files with same function which are exact replicas. But I changed only one that was being used when I traced it in gdb. Be warned, its only a couple of days since I started using gdb. Thanks to Kousik and Sunny.
nALFS-1.2.5-user-UID.patch

The other option Iwas left with is to use use numeric uid in <users></users>.
But can it take the syntax <users>uid:gid</users> because without gid, it is going to be a mess unless taken care of. or is it going to default to the uid value for gid too? I have to experiment and find out. unless some one can help me here.
Another thing I can do is (in case it won’t take the gid) set the gid while cleaning up with something like find / -uid $UID -exec chgrp $GID {} and take extra care to set gid before making any suids.

Bug 1058 – changing user breaks when chrooted in script
I tried to make matching entries in /etc/passwd and /etc/groups on the host and still getting the user not found error.
Here are the contents I appended to the host contents.
/etc/passwd

So I need to use user IDs, huh? Wonder how I can catch the output of the script and place it in xml. If that can’t be done, I can always use a package-userid xml entity in package.ent.
The first seems to beimpossible as of now and the second is a head ache. I think I will modify the add_user script so that it can be run from host root and make changes to $LFS/etc/passwd and /etc/passwd. Well, The following schema should work.
- The users on host should all belong to a temp group so that they can be removed easily after the build is done. But still I don’t like messing my host system.
- The id finding algo should check both the files to find the usable ID. This can be ensured by making the range availiable in host passwd filed, but some how I don’t like to depend on that !
