+ <title>Cleaning Up</title>
+
+ <para>Finally, clean up some extra files left around from running tests:</para>
+
+<screen><userinput>rm -rf /tmp/*</userinput></screen>
+
+ <para>Now log out and reenter the chroot environment with an updated
+ chroot command. From now on, use this updated chroot command any time
+ you need to reenter the chroot environment after exiting:</para>
+
+<screen role="nodump"><userinput>logout
+
+chroot "$LFS" /usr/bin/env -i \
+ HOME=/root TERM="$TERM" \
+ PS1='(lfs chroot) \u:\w\$ ' \
+ PATH=/bin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/usr/sbin \
+ /bin/bash --login</userinput></screen>
+
+ <para>Here the <parameter>+h</parameter> option is not used anymore, since
+ all the previous programs have been replaced: hashing is therefore
+ possible.</para>
+
+ <para>If the virtual kernel file systems have been unmounted, either manually
+ or through a reboot, ensure that the virtual kernel file systems are mounted
+ when reentering the chroot. This process was explained in <xref
+ linkend="ch-system-bindmount"/> and <xref
+ linkend="ch-system-kernfsmount"/>.</para>
+
+ <para>There were several static libraries that were not suppressed earlier
+ in the chapter in order to satisfy the regression tests in several packages. These
+ libraries are from binutils, bzip2, e2fsprogs, flex, libtool, and zlib. If desired,
+ remove them now:</para>
+
+<screen><userinput>rm -f /usr/lib/lib{bfd,opcodes}.a
+rm -f /usr/lib/libctf{,-nobfd}.a
+rm -f /usr/lib/libbz2.a
+rm -f /usr/lib/lib{com_err,e2p,ext2fs,ss}.a
+rm -f /usr/lib/libltdl.a
+rm -f /usr/lib/libfl.a
+rm -f /usr/lib/libz.a</userinput></screen>
+
+ <para>There are also several files installed in the /usr/lib and /usr/libexec
+ directories with a file name extention of .la. These are "libtool archive"
+ files. As already said, they are only useful when linking with static
+ libraries. They are unneeded, and potentially harmful, when using dynamic
+ shared libraries, specially when using also non-autotools build systems.
+ To remove them, run:</para>
+
+<screen><userinput>find /usr/lib /usr/libexec -name \*.la -delete</userinput></screen>
+
+ <para>For more information about libtool archive files, see the <ulink
+ url="&blfs-book;/introduction/la-files.html">BLFS section "About Libtool
+ Archive (.la) files"</ulink>.</para>
+
+ <para>Finally, remove the temporary 'tester' user account created at the
+ beginning of the previous chapter.</para>
+
+<screen><userinput>userdel -r tester</userinput></screen>
