Good. I install p11-kit for gnutls. I thought gnutls required it but
looking at the gnutls page p11-kit is listed as optional so maybe I was
wrong.

I had a fight with ghostscript the other day to get it to use a system
installed lcms2. I got there in the end. Ghostscript defaults to lcms 1
if both are available. ImageMagick likes lcms2 but Firefox and
Thunderbird only like lcms 1 so in the end I decided to stick with that
as it can be used by all of them.

Should definitely be in the book.

I install libnl for hostapd. It would be good to see that in the book.
It needs a sed:
sed -i '/stdlib/a #include <limits.h>' include/netlink-local.h
Also, it doesn't like multiple make jobs.

Aren't they in the book? Or is it a new version?

Good. I install these for webkit. Keep up the good work.
