Wow. I see 120mb of cleanup after running my cleaning process on
/tools. But then, I do a bit more cleanup than the book says. To me,
the book only does a partial clean-up, if you want to do it right,
then the removed files are significantly more. I've posted about this
before and it went uncommented. I'll post my cleanup script again
which achieve these results:

Here is the cleanup steps I use:
#Cleanup /tools
install -v -m755 -d Installed/Post-Installation
du -scxk --exclude='lost+found' $LFS
>Installed/Post-Installation/du_before_condense.log 2>&1
cat Installed/Post-Installation/du_before_strip_start.log
/usr/bin/find /tools/{{,s,i686-pc-linux-gnu/}bin,libexec} \
-type f \
-exec /usr/bin/strip --strip-all {} \; \
>Installed/Post-Installation/strip_binfiles.log 2>&1
cat Installed/Post-Installation/strip_binfiles.log | grep -v "File format not
recognized"
/usr/bin/find /tools/lib \
-type f \
-exec /usr/bin/strip --strip-debug {} \; \
>Installed/Post-Installation/strip_libfiles.log 2>&1
cat Installed/Post-Installation/strip_libfiles.log | grep -v "File format not
recognized"
rm -v -rf /tools/{info,man,share/{doc,man}}
>Installed/Post-Installation/tools_cleanup.log 2>&1
rmdir -v /tools/var >>Installed/Post-Installation/tools_cleanup.log 2>&1
vi Installed/Post-Installation/tools_cleanup.log
du -scxk --exclude='lost+found' $LFS
>Installed/Post-Installation/du_after_condense.log 2>&1
cat Installed/Post-Installation/du_*_condense.log
