      REPLY: 2:240/77 5db059d5       MSGID: 2:280/464.113 5db600a3       CHRS: UTF-8 4       Hallo Kai!               KR> I do not see that any system needs a dev and build environment.              More blasphemy! :::tsk, tsk:::              From this angle I can see 3 running systems that have dev and build       environments, one of which I am typing this reply on. I wouldn't have it any       other way.               KR> I doubt that you - if you're responsible for 100 computers -         KR> would run a build environment on every machine and compile any        KR> software 100 times.              At the moment 3 is exactly enough. Also I have no need, nor the money, to       have 100 computers at my disposal. The most I've had going at the same time       is 4 and all had dev and build environments (gcc and friends).               KR> I'm still not sure if it was a question for configuration or        KR> building.              I believe it was about the best way to learn the inner workings of a       commandline based linux system. The LFS document definetly contains a very       good menu as to what is involved as to the basics needed for anyone to build       such a system. I have found, and continue to find, it as a most valuable       document to have handy. It is a keeper.              Het leven is goed,       Maurice              ...
