May 30th, 2002 [markh]: Chapter 05 – Bash: Removed section about «last two commands executing anyways» because we no longer have the commands referred to there.
May 30th, 2002 [gerard]: Chapter 06 – Glibc: Replaced the various sed fixes with a regular patch.
May 30th, 2002 [gerard]: Chapter 06 – Gawk: Replaced the sed fix with a regular patch.

May 28th, 2002 [gerard]: Chapter 06 – Changing ownership: removed the explicit command to chown /lost+found. This is done by the first command now that proc isn't mounted anymore in chapter 5.
May 27th, 2002 [gerard]: Upgraded to ncurses-5.2-2.patch (this patch is smaller than the previously used one).
May 26th, 2002 [gerard]: Upgraded to: automake-1.6.1, bin86-0.16.3, file-3.38, gawk-3.1.1, gcc-3.1, gettext-0.11.2, modutils-2.4.16, psmisc-21 and util-linux-2.11r. Added gcc-3.1 compile fix patches for ncurses, perl and vim.
May 26th, 2002 [gerard]: Chapter 05+06 – Binutils: Removed the tooldir setting from chapter 05-binutils, moved its description to chapter 06-binutils.
May 26th, 2002 [gerard]: Chapter 05 – Gawk & Findutils: simplified the installation by removing the libexecdir modifications. We can live with a $LFS/static/libexecdir being created. The whole $LFS/static directory is temporarily anyways, so we're not all that concerned with what it looks like.
May 26th, 2002 [gerard]: Chapter 06 – Creating Directories: removed the cd / command and changed the two chmod commands to use absolute paths instead.
May 25th, 2002 [markh]: Chapter 06 – Some minor corrections dealing with removing the $LFS variable where it isn't wanted.
May 23rd, 2002 [gerard]: Implemented the keep_chap5_and_chap6_sep lfs-hint. Highlights of the change: added findutils and util-linux to chapter 5, installed everything from chapter 5 into $LFS/static and re-ordered the installation of packages in chapter 6 to prevent hard-wiring the wrong path (files from $LFS/static).
