2. For most packages it says to "Install [package] by running the

more accurate to say "Build [package] by running the following
commands:" and "Now, as the root user, install [package]:". Also, for a
few packages (ispell-3.2.06.epa7 for example, though I'm sure there were
a few more) it says "Install [package] using the following commands" but
there is only 1 command.
BLFS starts from source and ends by installing. The entire section is
what is needed to install the package. I don't believe the
singular/plural command issue is significant.
I just thought of this...I know that the whole section is supposed to be
about installing the package, but there is already a large "Installation
of [package]" heading above the section - it seems a bit redundant. The
heading makes it clear that the section is a list of the commands needed
to install the package - the text above each command should be a
description of what each command is for (building the package, then
installing the package).
