Packages

LFS ch8, final native build. Skips the optional make check.

BLFS. -D graphite2=enabled dropped since we don't build graphite2 (not needed for our minimal Pango/GTK3 use); harfbuzz falls back to its built-in shaper without it. introspection=enabled added later for the Phase 1.5 GTK3+PyGObject installer -- pango's own introspection rebuild needs HarfBuzz-0.0.gir, which this package never produced originally (built before gobject-introspection existed, same silent auto-detect skip as gdk-pixbuf). Skips the optional test suite.

BLFS. The required fallback icon theme. adwaita-icon-theme is skipped -- it needs librsvg, which is Rust-only since 2.40, and we're avoiding a Rust toolchain (same call made for gdk-pixbuf's glycin loaders). XFCE falls back to its own default icons instead of Adwaita's.

BLFS general/hunspell.html -- spell-check library. Sonnet (KDE Frameworks) refuses to build with zero backend plugins; hunspell is the standard one, and Kdenlive's title editor uses spell-check. ship_in_iso=false (Kdenlive stack = packages only). Plain autotools, --disable-static. Dictionaries are runtime data, not needed for the build.

BLFS general-libraries. Hardware ID databases -- required by libdisplay-info, needed by libxfce4windowing. No test suite.

LFS ch8. Just two data files (services, protocols) copied into /etc, no build. Bumped 20260723 -> 20260805 to track LFS 13.1's package set (sha256 from a real downloaded tarball).

IBus 1.5.31 -- input-method bus. libibus + IBus-1.0 typelib (gnome-shell hard-imports it). Built without the GTK immodules / setup UI / emoji+unicode dicts. ship_in_iso=false, built on .101.

Build-time-only Perl tool (icon-name-mapping) required by mate-icon-theme's configure. Needs XML::Simple, which LinuxDoors lacks -- build.sh cpanm's it into a scratch PERL5LIB (pure-perl, uses the already-present XML::Parser backend). Not shipped in the ISO.

BLFS general/icu.html. Recommended by both Node.js (--with-intl=system-icu) and Firefox. Tarball expands to a top-level 'icu' directory, source lives in icu/source.

BLFS general/imath.html -- Imath (half/vector/matrix math from OpenEXR). Required by Kdenlive 26.08 (find_package(Imath REQUIRED)) for its OpenTimelineIO import/export. ship_in_iso=false (Kdenlive stack = packages only). Plain CMake, --libdir=lib, python bindings off.

LFS ch8. Skips the optional make check.

BLFS general/inih.html (tiny .INI file parser, produces libinih.so + libINIReader.so). Second real dependency exiv2's CMakeLists.txt hard-requires despite BLFS listing it as merely 'Recommended' -- same gotcha as brotli (see packages/brotli/metadata.json), caught by a real 'inih library not found' CMake configure failure, not guessed.

BLFS. Required by lightdm's build. Applies BLFS's Perl 5.22+ compatibility sed fix to intltool-update.in. Skips the optional make check and the I18N-HOWTO doc install.

LFS ch8. No configure step. Skips the optional docs install.

Extra (BLFS), needed by ufw. --disable-nftables per BLFS (legacy iptables backend).

BLFS general-libraries. Country/language/currency name databases -- required by libxklavier, needed by lightdm's own configure (not just the greeter). Skips the optional ninja test.

BLFS pst/itstool. Required by lightdm's build. Skips 'python3 tests/run_tests.py' (needs docbook-xml, which we don't build) -- that's BLFS's test step, not part of the actual install.

LFS ch8. Python package built as a wheel and pip-installed offline. Needed by systemd's build (template rendering).

BLFS general/json-c.html (plain C JSON library -- not to be confused with json-glib, which is a separate GLib-based JSON library used by gegl). Required by libmypaint, itself required by GIMP for its native brush engine. Skips the test suite and the optional Doxygen-based HTML docs.

BLFS general/json-glib.html. Needed by gegl (required dependency per BLFS general/gegl.html), which is itself needed by GIMP. Skips the test suite -- BLFS's own page notes one test ('node') is a known failure anyway.

KDE Plasma 6.7.4 component for the LinuxDoors KDE desktop. ship_in_iso=false -- KDE Plasma is a Packages-page / Package Manager install, deliberately kept off linuxdoors.iso (XFCE + MATE are the shipped desktops). Built on .101 against the existing KF6 6.29 + Qt6 (/opt/qt6-full) stack from the Kdenlive work.

KDE Frameworks 6 (6.29.0) / Kdenlive dependency. Not in BLFS as its own page. ship_in_iso=false -- the whole Kdenlive stack is packages-only, kept out of linuxdoors.iso. ECM+CMake+Ninja, Qt6 from the deployed /opt/qt6-full, --libdir=lib for LinuxDoors' non-multiarch layout.
