896	Iana numbers update patch	William Harrington	clfs-commits@…	"In the iana etc README it states to get the updated data run make get then make then run make test.

GETTING FRESH DATA

    This process is not advised for unattended installations.  See below.
    To fetch the latest data from the IANA run:

        make get
        make
        make test
        # Visually inspect protocols and services because some errors
        # could produce a file that is valid but contains no records.

    Beware that while test checks for invalid lines in the output files,
    it cannot check for applications that might be broken by changes made
    by the IANA or breakage that makes the file valid but not useful.  In
    addition, there is generally little of interest in the IANA's changes
    unless you're trying to pick a port for new development in which case
    you're better off consulting the unfiltered files.


Do we need the patch and tell the user to update using the method in the README or keep the patch? We have to update the patch every time there are changes with the data."	task	closed	trivial		BOOK	CLFS Standard GIT	fixed
