Re: [Ltib] Cannot build e2fsprogs using ./ltib --force

[Stuart Hughes]

Hi Jim,

The most likely explanation is that is built after e2fsprogs is detected
on subsequent rebuilds of e2fsprogs, thus causing a failure.  I may need
to exclude this using an explicity ac_cv_...=no

Can you try this for me:

$ ./ltib -m clean
$ rm -rf rpm/BUILD/e2fs*
$ touch dist/lfs-5.1/e2fsprogs/e2fsprogs.spec
$ ./ltib

If this works but a subsequent: ./ltib -p e2fsprogs -f fails then I'll
have something to hunt down.

Regards, Stuart
