I use rpm package manager so I will make a binary rpm and install
and test that that. I will clone the repo and then add a tag so I can
get a "proper tarball" then have a go at it. I think I may be able to
do that tomorrow.

It is the only sane way to do this. Create an rpm install it if it not
right remove it and reinstall the previous one.

I don't understand why LFS is so anti package manager, I guess you
folks just like the beatings you get from not using one.  Me I only
need one beating to convince me that I need to go another path.  And
yes I figured that out all by myself without any one helping me.

We will get this working even if it kills us!
