Good Morning!
Okay, I know you won't include it in BLFS 6.0, but since I have a
working teTeX-3.0 now, I thought I'd share my experiences. I attached
a file with my build commands, a list of files and md5sums and a list
of generated binaries (and symlinks). The mentioned .tar.bz2 are not
on the official servers but created locally on my machine to provide
the md5sums.
The two patches required for teTeX-2.0.2 seem to not be necessary for
3.0. Without the flex patch I encountered no compile problems and
the readlink issue is resolved. teTeX now creates
$PREFIX/bin/kpsereadlink and $PREFIX/man/man1/kpsereadlink.1; at least
nothing else readlink-like appeared in my tetex installation.
I decided to put it in /opt/tetex but that shouldn't be an issue. The
main reason for this is that I don't won't my /usr/share/ to be clutter
with a bunch of texmf{-dist,-var,-whatever} directories. Personal taste
:-) The number of created binaries and links differs from what is in the
tetex 2.02 instructions, but I can't say which ones are missing.
Concerning the configuration: texconfig now works *only* for the user.
System wide configuration needs to be done with the wrapper script
texconfig-sys. I prefer to go through the 'gui' configuration, that's
why I skipped the two texconfig calls present in the current
description. The defaults are reasonable anyway (unless you need 'paper
letter' ;-).
This message might be interesting:

But xpdf wasn't build during my run, I guess one has to explicitly
enable it.
Also worth a note:

HTH,
