The LFS patches repo gets updated at approximately 0708 GMT every day, but only 
changes if there is a change in the patches in LFS which is fairly infrequent.
The changes recently were all generated by adding gcc-15 to the book.

I run jhalfs for every commit, but as I said earlier, I do not check the
'Retrieve source files' box.  I really cannot do that because the files I
am testing with are not in the repo yet.

If it's a jhalfs problem, I'll need to let Pierre address that.

I do get those in my logs for Chapter 8, but not Chapter 6.  Those errors seem to be 
generated by running ldconfig and are an artifact of the packages doing that in an 
incomplete chroot environment.  There are other packages that produce the same type 
of message.  As each line say, ignore them.
