The final evolution of a linux user.

@arnorobinwerkman 22 дня назад

nah, my final evolution would be gentoo, lfs is good for killing times during situations like during covid, or if you take a loooong vacation from work.

@SamuTheFrog 22 дня назад

@arnorobinwerkman I apparently have a very unpopular opinion, but you can customize most distros to an insane degree, or just use Arch & pick the components you want. Gentoo neede compiled from source, but WHY? Why do we wish to sit down for hours compiling code that is already compiled in other distros? Linux from Scratch Im not very familiar with how it works myself, but I know gentoo is just too much for anyone who works a lot or needs time for other tasks, or simply just values their time. Its not a hate thing, its just a confusion. I understand doing these things for a learning experience, but beyond that I really don't see why anyone with a life would want to mess with all this, yet all the time I see people saying they daily gentoo or linux from scratch(usually gentoo) The only actual reason I've ever seen, and been able to agree with, is "to flex on arch users", which, okay, fine, flex on arch users, thats great, it just means you have even less of a life than us 🤣🤣🤣 but then beyond that... lol why? I just don't get it. I work a lot. Id rather just use the already compiled arch distro & decide which components i want, and set it up quick, and move on.

LFS needs to be a speedrun category.

@No-mq5lw 14 дней назад

Needs to be normalized for the version of software, and compile time. Variables improving times that are out of the users' control but improve with better machines (i.e. you can buy your way to the top) are usually frowned upon and new rules are drafted in the wake of such a discovery to keep things fair. Games that have their physics tied to the FPS have caps to keep things a level playing field.

@simpleprogrammingcodes3834 21 день назад

When I was doing LFS, I remember regretting that there is no true community, like a forum, or a wiki with tips and solutions. If it existed, I think LFS could have been a viable OS for everyday use.But the way how it is now, you do it, and then you see there is nothing more to do with it... But if there were a community, some interesting things could have been done, like tricks to get the mouse work in the terminal, also mouse copy between terminals, use X only to launch one single app and then exit right afterwards... Anyways, there is so much experimentation possible with LFS, and yet people don't do it.

@Its-Just-Zip 17 дней назад

The perfect video for me to fall asleep to tonight! So much work has gone into making Linux more approachable and easier to use pretty much across the board. Arch is no longer a pain to install, gentoo no longer takes 3 weeks to install Chrome, and even Debian occasionally gets updates mid-cycle. This is all good. But its also good that LFS exists if just so that the people making the tools that make our favorite distros fully understand how those tools do what they do.

@imzesok 22 дня назад

at some point I really need to revisit LFS. I never finished the first attempt. ran out of drive space in my VM and I was just not paying attention. I remember thinking: "it's just compiling from source, and the guide says i'll be fine with 50 gigs, so surely I won't fill 90!". and then at some point, I did. I don't remember how far I was, I only remember I had started BLFS, and had a bootable system. I vaguely recall getting hung up for quite a while in the harfbuzz section, and getting all my hard work tossed because I was building from the unstable guide and it had updated part way through resizing my VMs drive. meaning I had to start over. It's not hard, it's just a lot of tedious copy, paste, and waiting. again... my fault, I should have given the VM more to work with. It did nothing for my hatred of circular dependencies though. Probably made it slightly worse. 🤣

Went down a similar rabbit hole around 20 years ago, DSL, Tiny and Micro Core Linux, LFS, Sorcerer, Source Mage, Lunar Linux and LFS. Would install one Distro and rebuild them it into a different one, install NDISWrapper and completely fail to get Wifi working. Spend hundreds on used networking equipment because $5 ethernet cards that works are better than $20-$50 Wifi cards that don't. Could build Linux up or install and rebuild it how ever I wanted too but back then I could never reach that level where I could get the Wifi working reliably or in most cases at all.

@jameskellam2980 23 дня назад

I did lfs 6.0. Then I did a full blfs. There wasn't a 64 bit version then, and the build wasn't as pure as the current one. I used knoppix that I had installed instead of using the live CD. The box was Celeron based and some of the compiles took forever. Really a bummer when it kicked out after 30 min and had to go digging thru docs and forms to fix and continue. I was into audio apps and with lfs I was able to get most any software to run on that system. I eventually gave up on it because I didn't have a package manager and it was too much to keep up with. Oh, and I built X11 from scratch too. Wasn't too bad. The worst iirc was the xml stuff. I didn't know much about xml and it seems a lot of devs were using it to manage the resources in their apps. Gonna watch this.

@TuxWing 23 дня назад

You don't have to use the binary packages with Gentoo, they are available in a separate repo that needs to be enabled to be used. I for one, do not use the binary repo, so all of my systems are still built largely from source with a few binary package sprinkled in here and there. So just still has that "flair" as far as I am concerned.

@Aeroxima 20 дней назад

Why? Isn't it just using more power and taking longer for the same thing? If the point is to know what you're building, are you actually checking there's nothing fishy in the source code every time? Building blinding seems no better than just running the binary given? If you just like doing it, ok sure, I just don't get it.

What is crazy is that LFS is just the essential basic build. There's bound to be a thousand things a distro does to mitigate problems, optimize for performance, etc. Talk about 'Scratching The Surface'...

@matthewstott3493 23 дня назад

LFS is a wonderful learning tool as it gets you into the nitty gritty of low-level system setup. But there's so much more to the engineering work of a distribution. Just keeping up with upstream patches is a full time job. You've got to monitor CVE's and test every single package, etc. Including patching upstream packages whose dev's haven't patched yet. i.e. a zero-day and a patch was submitted but hasn't been committed yet. You still need to apply those patches yourself then remove them with upstream has them applied. You should avoid tarball releases and grab the source code. All those distro's impacted by the xz supply chain attack were infected because they trusted the xz tarball release (which is the only place the malware existed, not in the repo source). Then you need to fix all the little things that upstream refuses to do. For example, kmscon was forked and the fork is somewhat active while the original release is dead. Then if you want mouse support, screen rotation, etc. Then you need to patch the kmscon fork with additional patches that are still pending upstream merge. Rinse and repeat 1,000 times for all the crazy things that don't go smoothly in FOSS.
