I am very impressed with the great improvements in LFS7.0!

Very welcomed, the wget-list with corresponding md5sums, and many other 
additions/editions.

Two things happened to me since 6.4:

    1. Host System Requirements: version-check.sh gives "... OK", even when 
packages are missing or wrong. Perhaps I did not understand, but shouldn't it 
fail.

    2. Host System Requirements: (I started with pmagic live CD, then decided 
to build a brand new Ubuntu just to host the LFS build, and delete at the end). 
In order to obtain in the host

              /lib/libc.so.6

I had to search the web. A symlink was the solution (of course, as I should 
have anticipated). The library to be linked was found with

          find / -name "libc-*.so*" 2>/dev/null

with the one result

          /lib/i386-linux-gnu/libc-2.13.so

thus,

          sudo ln -sv /lib/i386-linux-gnu/libc-2.13.so /lib/libc.so.6

was used. Without it, one package (I think it's gcc) would not build. Is some 
comment or script change necessary?


    3. Binutils-2.22 - Pass 1: I have always missed the ";" in 

          time { ./configure ... && make && make install; }

Apologizing again for my ignorance, is some comment due, for the newcomer 
noticing it?

Again, thank you editors for this new excellent version of the book (I am not 
naming, because it would be inexcusable to forget somebody).
