Tinux From Scratch (version 11.5) is a new custom version of the Linux From Scratch book. Future versions of
Tinux will be based on it. LFS itself is more and more headed into a direction, I am not comfortable with. So it is time to
become independen and split off.
The different aim of TFS vs. LFS is listed here.

Our Tinux Linux distribution
is back in Rust and Firefox business. Also tested now is complete offline
building, especially for LibreOffice, Rustc, and the dependencies
needed Firefox.

| 2023-03-06 08:13:51 | | Tinux completely updated to version 11.3 (based on BLFS 11.3). Default and only full blown web browser is now Falkon only. It is a Chromium based browser from the KDE project. Firefox is dropped. Building Rustc as a dependency for it from source took 20 hours on a machine with 8 cores and 16 threads. Needless to say I don't buy the hype around that programming language. Rust is not a truly open source programming language, if you can't realistically build it from scratch (only with a binary blob). The compiler is slow and relies by default on dynamic loading of source libraries from the net with insufficient documentation to turn such features off. |
| 2023-03-04 11:40:53 | | Tinux base system has been updated to the latest LFS 11.3 version. BLFS layer for 11.3 still has to follow. The default base system still points to 11.2. |
