6.40.1. Installation of Inetutils
All programs that come with Inetutils will not be installed. However, the Inetutils build system will insist on installing all the man pages anyway. The following patch will correct this situation:
patch -Np1 -i ../inetutils-1.5-no_server_man_pages-2.patchPrepare Inetutils for compilation:
./configure --prefix=/usr --libexecdir=/usr/sbin \
--sysconfdir=/etc --localstatedir=/var \
--disable-ifconfig --disable-logger --disable-syslogd \
--disable-whois --disable-serversThe meaning of the configure options:
--disable-ifconfig
This option prevents Inetutils from installing the ifconfig, which can be used to configure network interfaces. LFS uses ip from IPRoute2 to perform this task.
