Hello fellow linuxfromscratch builders.
I am not submitting in this post a problem whatsoever, only a possible suggestion easing the building, logging,
debugging and finally the package management topic which seems to be crucial especially when building blfs.
I was looking for a solution which remains in accordance with the educational vision of LFS.
After building several times LFS you want to speed up the different stages but remain in control of your system.
Even as a novice you are able to see what happens with each chapter of the book and you are able to understand
BASH scripting.
I just wanted to have a fully bash written scripting as well as a package manager written in BASH starting at the toolchain stage, logging every step in order to debug compilation errors.( no c++, no perl , no apt-get, no pacman ...). Just bash, sed, awk like in our LFS/BLS book.
A young fellow did that! Have a look at it, try it. It works !!! Toolchain, 8.2 version and especially the SVN version. For those who are interested, he scripted as well the CLFS. But you remain the master of your linuxfromscratch and believe me it is very educational !
