%general-entities; ]> Now that the book has been updated, it's time to update the LFS FTP archive so people can download the new package. Move the new package tarball from your home directory on belgarath to the /home/ftp/lfs-packages/conglomeration directory. Go to the /home/ftp/lfs-packages/cvs directory. Remove the symlink that points to the old package. Create a new symlink that points to the new package by running a command like ln -s ../conglomeration/package-newversion.tar.bz2 Remove the lfs-packages-cvs-* file. Recreate the 00MD5SUMS file by running: rm 00MD5SUMS && md5sum * > 00MD5SUMS Run date to get the current date and time on the server. Go to the /home/ftp/lfs-packages directory and create a new lfs-packages tarball by running the following commands: cp -av cvs lfs-packages-cvs-yyyymmdd-hhmm && tar cvfh lfs-packages-cvs-yyyymmdd-hhmm.tar lfs-packages-cvs-yyyymmdd-hhmm && rm -r cvs && mv lfs-packages-yyyymmdd-hhmm cvs && mv lfs-packages-yyyymmdd-hhmm.tar cvs Add the new lfs-packages' MD5 hash to the 00MD5SUMS file: cd cvs && md5sum lfs-packages-yyyymmdd-hhmm.tar >> 00MD5SUMS Check the filesize of this new lfs-packages-cvs tarball and divide it by 1024 to get the number of Kilobytes. Round it off to the nearest Kilobyte. Divide this number by 1024 to get the number of Megabytes and round it off to two digits after the decimal point. Go back to the LFS Book and edit the index.xml file. Update the all-version entity and enter the new version string in the cvs-yyyymmdd-hhmm format. Update the all-size-kb and all-size-mb entities with the values you calculated above.
