The following is software dependencies. I want to build AccountsService-0.6.21 in the first section of chapter 4, which requires Polkit-0.106. Then Polkit-0.106 requires intltool-0.50.0, intltool-0.50.0 requires XML::Parser-2.41, XML::Parser-2.41 requires libwww-perl-6.04 (optionally used during the tests) in section Perl Modules of chapter 13. Do you mean that I needn't install libwww-perl-6.04? Does it affect the tests though it is optional?
BTW, I'm really in doubt now not only in this problem but also about how am I going on according to BLFS book. In the introduction of book it is said that I can elect what I need by myself. If it means that permissive range is all sections from chapter 4 to the end. For example my aim is generating X window, but I don't really know which packages I must build and which section I should start in, chapter 4 or directly chapter 24. X Window System Environment. Now my improvement is very slow. Give me some ideas please. Thanks.
