Handoff: SysV-on-13.0 session

Base for everything here was the 1.11.26 files.zip + HANDOFF.md. Read the DRIFT section before overwriting anything.

New tool: lfs-sysvbook 1.0.0 (build 62ebe64)

LFS 13.0 dropped the SysV edition. This tool grafts the SysV flavour of the last SysV book (12.4, donor) onto a systemd-only release (target) and stores the result as a normal book in the lfs store, with wget-list + md5sums generated offline from the books' own chapter 3.

lfs fetch 12.4 && lfs fetch 13.0-systemd
lfs-sysvbook make                       # -> 13.0-sysv
lfs-sysvbook check --book 13.0-sysv     # 12 checks, fails loudly
lfs --book 13.0-sysv run

What make does: replaces Systemd section with 12.4's "Udev from Systemd", removes D-Bus, inserts Sysklogd + SysVinit after E2fsprogs, swaps chapter 9 and the fstab wholesale, filters systemd-* accounts out of 7.6's heredocs, applies the three SysV configure-flag edits (Man-DB, Procps-ng, Util-linux ch8), relabels /etc/lfs-release and the kernel image to <out>. Transplanted sections stay pinned at donor versions; everything else builds at target versions. Section NUMBERS on transplanted pages keep donor numbering -- cosmetic, build order is by document position. Rules are declarative tables at the top of the file for future migrations (make --target 13.1-systemd).

Verified: a full 13.0-sysv build ran into chapter 8 + BLFS bootstrap on the real system.

lfs 1.11.26 -> 1.11.29 (build 42ca92a)

1. "download the sources" pipeline step: done = every basename of the

CURRENT book's wget-list present in $LFS/sources, not "any tarball exists". Leftovers from an older book no longer skip the download step. Shows "download the sources (N missing)". Falls back to the old heuristic only when no wget-list is cached.

2. Fresh-run confirmation in cmd_bs_run (both build-system run and the

lfs run alias): mounted tree with no layout yet + tty -> prints the book and the whole session config once, asks [Y/n/e(dit)]. n stops with pointers, e runs _prompt_session_config(force=True). Never asks on resume or non-interactively.

3. _pkg_glob_for: last-resort infix pattern name-*version (SQLite-3510200

ships as sqlite-autoconf-3510200.tar.gz -- new package in 13.0, broke unpack). Unpack doc-filter extended with infix spellings (-doc-|-docs-|-html-|-man-pages-|-tests-) so the new pattern cannot grab sqlite-doc-* or systemd-man-pages-*. Unit-tested: sqlite, systemd, tcl, expect, python all pick the right tarball. After installing: regenerate scripts (gen-chroot-scripts --run --overwrite) so the fix reaches the chroot.

packagemanager_install 1.11.26 -> 1.11.27 (build d6b1854)

The "could not write to <dir>" failure box printed a wrong remedy (add-dir-to-sysgroup with swapped args, prefixed name for script install). Now: reads the blocking dir's group owner; if it is already a collector group it prints packagemanager sysgroup add <group> <user>; only an unshared dir gets add-dir-to-sysgroup (correct order: group first) plus the membership step. script install line uses the bare package name. Hit in the wild: p11-kit vs /usr/share/zsh/site-functions (nimgnu_zsh).

Makefile / README.md

Makefile: lfs-sysvbook added to TOOLS (install/uninstall/check covered). README.md: tool table row + short "SysV on LFS 13.0+" section.

DRIFT -- read before installing

The user's installed lfs-helper reports 1.11.53; the files.zip copy is 1.11.26. Do NOT overwrite it from this set. Three pending lfs-helper fixes are in lfs-helper-1.11.53.patchnotes.txt (progress line before the manifest scan, chown 0:0 instead of root:root pre-7.6, mkdir /tmp early); apply them to the CURRENT lfs-helper. The scripts-vs-tools version-mismatch warning in the chroot is this drift, advisory only; it goes away once the version lines agree again. Also check packagemanager_install --version before overwriting: if it is newer than 1.11.26, port the remedy fix instead. packagemanager and blfs were not touched this session.

Open items

• lfs-helper fixes above: pending, need the current 1.11.53 file.
• blfs set-default flavour issue from the old HANDOFF: unresolved, now

doubly relevant (BLFS must not pick a systemd-flavour default).

• Not tested: booting the finished 13.0-sysv system (build reached BLFS

bootstrap; boot untested).
