The listed version numbers correspond to versions of the -software that are known to work, and this book is -based upon them. Unless you are an experienced LFS builder, we highly -recommend not to try out newer versions, as the build commands for one -version may not work with a newer version. Also, there is often a good -reason for not using the latest version due to known problems that haven't -been worked around yet. -All the URLs, when possible, refer to the project's page at -. The Freshmeat -pages will give you easy access to the official download sites as well as -project websites, mailing lists, FAQs, changelogs and more. + -We can't guarantee that these download locations are always available. -In case a download location has changed since this book was published, please -try to google for the package. Should you remain unsuccessful with this, you -can consult the book's errata page at -or, better yet, try one of the alternative means of downloading listed on -. -You'll need to store all the downloaded packages and patches somewhere -that is conveniently available throughout the entire build. You'll also need a -working directory in which to unpack the sources and build them.
