Last call on ? able _nec-build_ packages
I'm making a final pass thru these before install. I plan on giving these
packages a status of _nec-build_, therefore they will not make it into the
final production system.....they will be removed after the system is
built:
Package: dialog _nec-build_ .vs. _nec-run_ modconf depends
Package: libgdbm1 _nec-build_ perl depends .vs. _nec-run_
Package: libdb1-dev _nec-build_ .vs. _nec-run_ apache
Package: tar _nec-build_ .vs. Marked as req in distribution.
Package: gzip _nec-build_ .vs. Marked as req in distribution.
Package: dpkg _nec-build_ .vs. Marked as req in distribution.
Package: findutils _nec-build_ .vs. Marked as req in distribution.
Package: modutils _nec-build_ .vs. Marked as req in distribution.
Package: libgdbm1-dev _nec-build_ .vs. _nec-run_ for apache
Package: kernel-source-2.0.33 _nec-build_
tar and gzip could be placed on a mounted floppy and run from there when
needed. Not so sure if this would work with dpkg....could I leave the
dpkg package in place and simply move it's binary to the floppy....and
include the mount point in the default path?
What do you guys think of this strategy. It seems easy and affordable and
safe. Just unmount the floppy and the hackers lose access to these tools.
