1. The "Configuring for Adding Users" page mentions creating /etc/default/useradd, but this is already created by the version of Shadow in current LFS.

2. In the vimrc page, it says "Note that this is only true if you compiled vim using LFS-3.1 onwards. Prior to this, the global vimrc was /usr/share/vim/vimrc." Isn't a comment about LFS 3.1 a bit old to be mentioned in current BLFS?

3. There a few broken links in the "Setting Up a Network Firewall" page. This includes both links to ibm.com, the link to linuxgazette (I think the link to that issue should be http://www.linuxjournal.com/issue/65/ but I don't know which article...assuming it's even there, since linuxgazette.com now redirects to linuxjournal.com) and the link to http://www.linux-firewall-tools.com/linux/.

I've also attached a patch to address several other issues, in addition to some spelling/grammar fixes...

1. ZSH instructions say to unpack the docs tarball into the source dir, but it should have the command to untar the docs from inside the ZSH source dir, for consistency with other packages in the book.

2. GnuCash says libgnomeui and GtkHTML are required, but GtkHTML already needs libgnomeui.

3. GNOME Media says it requires Scrollkeeper and XML::Parser. Scrollkeeper requires XML::Parser, so this is redundant.

4. libgnomeprint says it requires Pango and Fontconfig, but Pango requires Fontconfig already.

5. Updated program lists for kdelibs, kdebase, and libgsf.

6. Updated the explanation for the sed command in pciutils to take into account that it now looks for curl.
